Continued from previous page14….Entirely plastic-free, Robyn uses compostablecups and lids as well as packaging and offersreuse tubs to her customers. Only sourcingcoffee from growers with a social and ecologicalethos is vital too – examples include Rwandancoffee grown by female workers with no otherincome source and Brazilian farmer who hasreduced water consumption with irrigationprojects. Obviously, selling online does involveimport and postal charges, but Robyn tries tooffset this by using carbon neutral companiesand contributing to Ecologi, which plants treesevery month.Forest Edge Roasting has a subscription serviceand “three bag bundle” – blends are ForestEdge Roast, Muddy Paws, Hedgerow, Driftersand North Ridge – if you are at the top ofLyndhurst High Street pop in and try some out.Robyn can be reached on 07931 362307 , onfacebook , twitter or email onrobyn@forestedgeroasting.co.uk.Global adventures in good taste –Coffee MongersSourcing the world’s finest beans and thenroasting them to achieve perfection is theachieved aim and ethos of Lymington basedCoffee Mongers, which is run by a team ofcoffee lovers based at Unit 13, Ampress Park.This ethical and sustainable coffee companywas set up some years ago by Brooke andTarek, who were later joined by Gareth andJake, to name two of the other team members.Providing a warm welcome at the coffee baropen 10am to 4pm weekdays (and now 10amto 2pm Saturdays) is Doola the Coffee Mongersfriendly dog. Prior to the Covid lockdown theyconcentrated on roasting for the wholesalemarket across the New Forest and beyond buthave now developed a busy online salesbusiness for individual consumers – subscribersand call in customers – many of whom willcome out of their way for a sublime cup ofethically sourced and specially roasted coffee.Talking about coffee is pretty important to theteam too – Jake explained to me so much aboutcoffee and how they identify the ones they willroast and blend. The dark-roasted coffee thatgained popularity from the Italian market isoften poor quality and high in caffeine. CoffeeMongers offer a variety of high-gradeflavoursome coffees with 30% less caffeine andsubtle flavours to suit all palates. They roastsmall amounts and can buy a harvest fromgrowers across the world that they know andhave built a relationship with. Arabica coffee isthe most popular type of bean used for asweeter, less harsh taste while Robusta ischeaper to produce and higher in caffeine, witha more bitter flavour. Buying direct fromgrowers means they can purchase a wholeharvest and create their own blends – this arethen introduced to their keen coffee customersand is offered as single origin coffee. Oncetasted many find that they can never go back tothe mass produced coffees offered by the bigbrands.During lockdown they developed the mail orderand subscription services and are now alsowelcoming customers into the coffee bar atAmpress Park. Regularly supplying local eateriesand businesses such as garden centres, CoffeeMongers start by agreeing a “go to” blend andenable customers to try some more unusualcoffees and to be very flexible about amountsand re-ordering. They are in frequent touchwith their regulars and operate an impressivedelivery system , which is able to respondquickly to demand and new orders whilekeeping travel miles to a minimum. They toouse plastic-free packaging and reusable tubs forbusiness supplies. The Arabica coffee beanscome in as green beans and will have beendefined already by a Coffee Q Grader, but theteam at Coffee Mongers can then taste anddiscuss before deciding how to blend and roastfor their business – this sounded like a veryenjoyable part of their job! After some sampleroasting in the probat mini roaster the beansare roasted for about 15 minutes in their 20kgBuhler roaster.Globe-trotting has been the shared backgroundin this team and their commitment toenvironmentalissues is clear –previously the localHQ for SurfersAgainst Sewage,Coffee Mongers arereally lookingforward to theirnext venture – theyhave taken on theadjacent unit andare dividing thespace to productionand the customerarea. Now thatlockdown is over,they plan to restart coffee clubs, music eventsand to have a great space for people to pop infor a coffee, pastries and to chill out.
