Coming Soon! This year, @manchestercoffeefestival

Coming Soon! This year, @manchestercoffeefestival will be bringing you a packed programme of #coffee tastings, workshops, a chance to brew with the pro’s, the finals of national coffee competitions and plenty of opportunities to sample all the espresso you can handle.

We will be there making coffee (of course) but we are also delighted to be presenting on both days in 'The Talks Programme'. On Saturday at 2pm Hols will be discussing the concept of empowerment when it comes to coffee and the need to decolonise it to deliver maximum impact. Then she is back on Sunday at 11am to present the (lengthy!) process we have been through to deliver our new bags, discussing the challenges of wading through greenwashing and opaque supply chains to find the right manufacturing partner.

Finally, we will also be delivering a session in The Tasting Room so if you have wanted the opportunity to sample our full range in one go (without becoming over-caffeinated!) then make sure you stop by - it will be a great chance to learn more about sensory skills in coffee.

Plus, the festival pride themselves on being open to all the family so there will be plenty of activities for everyone to enjoy. We hope to see you there!

Tickets available through the link in our bio.

We offer carefully selected coffees which will take you on a flavour journey around the world (from the comfort of your own home). Whether they are naturally sweet, rounded coffees with great balance and body from our ‘Base’ Range, or the more diverse and distinct lots that push the boundaries with our ‘Explore’ range, we’ve got you covered.

Plus, we have listened to your feedback and have consequently updated our website so that it’s now much easier to manage your own subscriptions. Skip or cancel anytime.

Did you know that our new 250g packs will degrade

Did you know that our new 250g packs will degrade in around 6 months in a well-managed home compost setup?

Composting has been going on for generations which has led to many myths, including what you can and can’t add, how difficult it is and if there are specific guidelines to follow. We therefore wanted to debunk some of the common myths.

Discover more about our move to 100% home compostable packaging through our blog (link in bio)

North Star 🧡 DEMI Community

Do you love food as much as we do? Because we real

Do you love food as much as we do? Because we really love it. Like, really really.

We love it so much that when starting @northstarcoffeeshop in 2017, it was a priority to create a space that not only feeds but nourishes those who visit, paying attention to provenance and quality in the same way we do with the coffee we source, roast and brew. We have felt so lucky to work alongside the wonderful team @novabakehouse from the very start. The principles they put into place are now very much a part and parcel of our seasonal food menu and of course, we get to stock (and devour) their outrageously delicious bread and viennoiserie on the regs.

Their mission to be led by nature for all that they bake is so very powerful in today's day and age. They exist to provide real sourdough bread, flavourful pastries and provisions for their local community whilst creating an alternative economy for farmers that regenerate land with diversity. They focus on the human scale and champion positive interactions over commercial extraction and we are here for it.

This regenerative approach is the reason why we appreciate every mouthful. It also helps that everything they create is TOTALLY delicious.

Here’s a shout out to all the incredible female

Here’s a shout out to all the incredible female coffee producers we work with at North Star.

It is safe to say our industry would not work without their dedication and that is why we prioritise gender equity when reviewing how we can support our purchases with impact initiatives. The work of @vavacoffeekenya with @coffeemilkblood and @gentefuturo is an amazing example of what can be achieved by empowering women in coffee. Our new crop Kenyan purchases (Kimoso and Rianjagi) support this initiative and we cannot wait to visit again and pick up where we left off.

Speaking of which, we are SO excited to be able to tell you more about our project with @caravelacoffee and the wonderful Maria Zoila Piñeda in La Palma, El Salvador! More on this to come very soon but it is safe to say it is an honour and privilege to work alongside such PHENOMENAL women.

Thank you ladies 🙏
