Czar Street V.23 has landed! 🚀

Our seasonal blend is built upon the solid base of this year’s rich and creamy natural from Fazenda Rainha Da Paz in Brazil. To that we have added the sweet and juicy honey lot from the Sanchez family farm ‘La Candelilla’ in Costa Rica and Maribel Herrera Torres’ floral and funky natural hailing from San Antonio, Peru.

The resulting cup is sweet and complex with a character reminiscent of Turkish delight. There are juicy notes of raspberry and rose when served black, and in milk, said raspberry becomes more jam-like alongside hints of vanilla custard and dark chocolate.

We have had the pleasure of working with @vavacoff

We have had the pleasure of working with @vavacoffeekenya for the sourcing of our Kenyan coffees since 2019. Through her, we are able to not only get our hands on some of the most outstanding lots, but we can also access real data from the ground to understand the costs of production and challenges faced by producers. Kenya is a fairly complex country to source #coffee from and it has previously been really difficult to form any kind of relationship with producers so we really value the friendship and working relationship we have established with Vava.

#Rianjagi is a cooperative society in #Ngandori, Embu county and brings together just over 700 micro entrepreneurs, each of whom have between 0.5-2 hectares of coffee planted alongside other crops such as banana and maize. Ripe cherries are delivered to the Rianjagi washing station to be fermented, soaked and washed. This incredibly attentive post-harvest processing produces a cup bursting with character. We find juicy citrus notes and an effervescent mouthfeel reminiscent of lemonade! There are hints of butter and pineapple making this very suited to filter brewmethods without milk.

To celebrate #LeedsPride, we want to shout about @flamingosleeds in Central Arcade.

Having opened in late 2018, Flamingos is Leeds’s only dry, late night LGBT+ friendly Coffee House open 7 days a week. A space where the local community can meet friends, go on dates and feel totally safe.

As well as creating an open and inclusive space, James has always tried to support local and work with ethically minded businesses who don’t compromise on quality. Therefore, when he approached us to supply them with #NorthStarCoffee, we jumped at the chance to stock this local gem.

We’re also super excited to be stocking their new site, @theflamboyanceleeds which is located on Sweet Street, at the edge of Leeds’ exciting South Bank development. Serving coffee, a selection of craft ales, wines and locally sourced spirits, as well as delicious home-made sandwiches, pastries and cakes, light bites food and evening tapas.

Costa Rica La Candelilla Honey ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

'This is one of the most enjoyable coffees I’ve had in ages. In the middle of a busy day I find myself focused just on this coffee for a few minutes. Who needs meditation.'

This coffee is unbelievably clean with fantastic sweetness, a syrupy body and mouthfeel making it wonderfully versatile. Expect flavour notes of hibiscus, caramel and milk chocolate.
