Seasonal Festive Blend 250g Beans

This holiday season, we’ve crafted a special selection of Arabica beans from three diverse coffee-growing regions, each specifically sourced to complement the others; creating a unique festive blend. Colombia brings delicate white florals and soft black forest cake sweetness, which pair beautifully with El Salvador’s lively citrus brightness and subtle spice. Together, they find balance in Guatemala’s rich cranberry and smooth chocolate, rounding out a collection that feels layered, vibrant, and perfectly suited for the colder season.

Colombia - Huila

Huila is one of Colombia’s most celebrated coffee regions, home to diverse smallholder communities and rich volcanic soils. This season’s Colombian coffee comes from two reputable farms - ASPROTimaná and Grupo Asociativo San Isidro. The ASPROTimaná farm was founded in 2001 by 38 families and has since grown to over 800 members across 20 villages. Producing washed Arabica from varieties such as Caturra, Castillo, and Bourbon, the cooperative holds Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, and UTZ certifications, and runs a ‘Women’s Coffee’ program supporting female farmers and community projects. Grupo Asociativo San Isidro traces its roots to the late 1970s, now uniting 85 families farming shade-grown plots on volcanic slopes around Pitalito and Acevedo. Known for coffees with floral aroma, soft fruit, and a silky body, San Isidro also reinvests Fairtrade premiums into schools, healthcare, and environmental initiatives, reflecting its focus on sustainable growth and community wellbeing.

El Salvador – Finca San Carlos

Our exceptional El Salvador coffee comes from the Finca San Carlos farm, part of the Borgonovo family’s 500-year coffee legacy, nestled in the volcanic soils of the Balsamo mountain range. The farm cultivates varieties such as Bourbon, Pacas, and Catuai Rojo with a strong focus on sustainability. Harvested coffees undergo 6–8 hours of fermentation before being dried on traditional clay brick patios, a method that enhances their flavour profile.

Guatemala – Cooperativa Agua Blanca

Our Guatemalan microlot comes from the wonderful Agua Blanca R.L. Cooperative, which has been led by women since 1988 and today unites over 180 producers in the mountainous Santa Cruz Naranjo region of Santa Rosa. With support from ANACAFE and sustainable farming networks, the cooperative cultivates Hard and Strictly Hard Beans across 102 hectares, focusing on environmentally responsible practices. Women play a central role in administration and community development, ensuring both high-quality coffee and social impact. Grown in volcanic soils at 1,180 masl, the coffee beans are carefully washed and reflect the cooperative’s long tradition of quality and resilience.

Why Our Coffee is The Best?

Sourcing the Pick of the Crop

Established relationships with producers and the coffee farming community means we can consistently source the best Arabica and Robusta beans from over 40 origins across the Coffee Growing Belt. At Kingdom Coffee we always demand the pick of the crop. We buy Grade 1 or “Strictly High Grown” – SHG coffee beans. By selecting only coffee beans from the highest elevations we can be sure that the bean has matured more slowly, grown to a larger size and with more density to create a consistently great taste profile.

There’s no denying that coffee grown at higher elevations produces the best flavour profiles, which is then sorted and graded by the farmers with greater care and attention and therefore command a higher premium price which we are very happy to pay! We believe passionately that farmers should be rewarded fairly for their hard work and the quality of their crop.

 

 

Investing in the Purest and Cleanest Roast

ROASTING BETTER: We are unique in that we roast on a clean bed of air in small batches as opposed to conventional drum roasting - only 1% of coffee is roasted this way. Air roasting elevates the natural sweetness to give a smooth and pure taste. Unlike traditional roasting, the chaff, the skin of the bean, that surrounds the raw bean is removed during the air process whilst in normal roasting this is burnt onto the bean. This makes the resultant air roasted beans more pure as the beans will taste less burnt and acidic.

CONSISTENCY: Another benefit to Air Roasting is consistency - typical roasters rely upon roasting “to colour“ which returns a high degree of variance from batch to batch. The Air Roasters rely upon exact metrics such as temperature and time with specific profiles that have been developed by our Q Grader, a certified coffee professional, to suit the particular bean. An exact science rather than guess work.

 

 

Protecting the Environment

We all have to recognise and assess our individual impact upon the environment. Our new Air Roaster uses 30% less energy than a typical roaster and reduces wasted heat by recirculating it in a fully enclosed system. We have a catalytic converter to ensure that harmful gases released are reduced by around 96%. Committing further to minimise our impact on the planet we have moved our packaging to 100% curb-side recyclable. This new packaging still protects that fresh roasted taste.

 

 

OUR BEANS are amongst the freshest on the market, being roasted to stock in the UK as opposed to importing roasted beans on a much longer timescale. Our Neotech roaster is more environmentally friendly, energy efficient and better than conventional drum roasters in that it can roast in specific small batches with unique roasting profiles that are able to compensate product variations and unfold the unique flavour of each individual coffee blend whilst reducing wasted heat by recirculating in the fully enclosed system.

Our range of Ethical coffees support our partnership with Toybox, who we aim to donate £100,000 over a period of ten years, having donated £50,000 in the last 5 years. This enabled Toybox to provide the resources needed for the street outreach team throughout 2020, conducting 240 visits to children in the most high-risk areas in Guatemala City as well as deliver 100 children across the city a warm and nutritious meal each week. Your continued support of Kingdom Coffee means that we can fund vital projects like this so thank you very much!
