The coffee beans in our speciality range are responsibly sourced through a second-party assured verification scheme: NKG Bloom.

Our single origin coffee beans are sourced from second-party assured verification schemes – giving you assurance that your coffee is sustainably sourced from responsible coffee producing communities.

This coffee comes from a group of small producers who are involved in the NKG Bloom initiative – which works to ensure the long-term viability of green coffee supplies by providing smallholder farmers with the opportunities and resources they need to run their farms at full potential and enter a pathway out of poverty.

Brew your coffee like a Japanese Coffee Master at home. For an authentic taste of Japanese coffee, we recommend brewing your Ueshima coffee using a V60 filter. Along with other filter methods, the V60 is a popular way to brew coffee and is used by Coffee Masters in many coffee shops across Japan. It’s simple to use and delivers a perfect cup of coffee. For exceptional coffee, we recommend using fresh, filtered water.

After you have ground your coffee beans to your liking. Follow these simple steps.

• Place your V60 over a cup or mug
• Put a filter paper into the V60 and pour over a little hot water to wet the paper, heat the cup and ensure the flavour isn’t affected, then pour the water away
• Add 15g of freshly ground coffee
• Pour around 30ml of freshly boiled water into the coffee until it’s wet all over
• Pause and enjoy the moment for 30 seconds while the coffee ‘blooms’
• Slowly pour in another 220ml of water, gently moving in circles as you pour
• Let the coffee finish brewing and drip through the filter into the cup. This should take 1-2 minutes
• Remove the filter and the V60 from the cup
• Serve, share, and enjoy your perfectly brewed cup of coffee

To keep your coffee fresh, always reseal the pouch and store in a cool, dry, place. 

This coffee pouch is recyclable. When empty, drop it off at a flexible plastic collection point – available at most large supermarkets across the UK.

Our entire range is recyclable – either through your kerbside collection (ground and bean packagine, cardboards and coffee bags) or through our partnership with Podback*.
