James’ Gourmet Coffee is a UK based micro roasting company located in Ross on Wye, Herefordshire. James’ Gourmet Coffee is committed to bringing high quality, flavorful coffee to its customers. Before buying an idealism and believing that we are making a difference, we first cup-taste the coffee.
Our Growers
We only purvey coffee when it tastes great. The next stage is choosing between the varieties of coffee plant that can come from an estate. This commitment to taste is a positive step in global trade. If we were to buy a coffee for branding sake we would take trade from the best producers, sell second rate coffee and subsidise coffee to be grown in non-sustainable areas.
Buying
Due to the fact that we search for taste first, money, although necessary, takes a back seat. We have to be proud of our coffee and to achieve this we have to buy the best. Small selected lots of the most fantastic coffees on the planet. Wow! When you have tasted the best coffee, there is no substitute.
As a company, we feel it is really important to stand on the side of the producer and the producing country, when it comes to the prevenence and the intellectual ownership of the coffee itself. We feel that this licensing agreement is a preliminary step in empowering coffee growers and processors in Ethiopia, which can only be a good thing.
