Farm Partnerships
Valuing relationships with farmers and the home barista equally.
At Catfish Coffee Roasters we focus on sourcing coffee with a story. Every bean embraces a distinctive flavour profile. We put all our efforts into building a consistent, reliable supply of great tasting coffee beans.
We pride ourselves in the processes we have developed among the team to honor each step of the pursuit for consistency.
From Q Graders to our Roastmaster, our team assesses every batch of green beans on arrival and again after blending to ensure the coffee is being unlocked to its full potential.
