Introducing: The Ground Crew
Producing our coffee is a craft from harvesting, processing and shipping right down to the barista who pours your latte, our people care about creating the best experiences. Groundhouse baristas complete our national barista academy program to ensure they respect the bean and harvest its flavours to the full, producing the finest extracted espresso to blend beautifully aromatic, delicious drinks.

Ethical and sustainable as a priority
Groundhouse coffee is sourced from sustainably managed plantations, including both Rainforest Alliance and Fairtrade certified coffees. We work closely with selected plantations and support key development programs to promote best practices and improve both the welfare and coffee growing within these communities.
Our Coffee: Blend 7
We have two distinctive in-house blends: Blend 7 and Blend 3. We’re proud that our coffee is sustainably grown and ethically sourced and you can taste the difference in every cup.
Tasting Notes
Exceptionally aromatic, with hints of rich chocolate, deep soft caramel and sweet fruity undertones. Slowly roasted, the beans release a pungent sweetness and full-bodied flavour that lends itself beautifully to espressos or blended with milk.
Origins
An Arabica blend from sustainable smallholdings in Central & South America. Blend 7 is sourced seasonally, which ensures flavour consistency at all times of the year. It is grown on Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance certified farming
co-operatives including CAPUCAS in Honduras and Sol y Café in Peru.
Our Coffee: Blend 3
Tasting Notes
Punchy and full-bodied, with dark chocolate and dried apricot notes. Blend 3 is ideal for a fragrant and flavoursome cappuccino or latte. A unique blend of both Arabica and Robusta beans gives Blend 3 its distinctively bold taste profile.
Origins
Dependent on the season Blend 3 uses Fairtrade coffee beans grown by small holder co-operatives in Brazil, Vietnam and Central America such as SOPPEXCCA, our Nicaraguan partners. These Arabica elements are then rounded off by a Fairtrade-sourced Robusta, a crucial addition to our unique blend
Giveback Programme
Our Give Back Programme promotes our best practices and makes a real difference to the communities we work in. Working with the Capucas Co-operative, we pay into a revolving fund that improves the living standards for the poorest growers.
