Artwork

The label is a nod to Wrexham's former police station - a brutalist tower that defined the town's skyline for decades before being demolished in 2020. It's gone, but it was part of the town. This blend is built the same way: something that belongs here.

About the coffee

Built from a washed Peru and a natural Brazil. The Peru gives structure - clean, high-grown, Caturra and Bourbon varieties that hold their shape in the cup. The Brazil anchors it with chocolate depth and body. Expect milk chocolate, balanced acidity, and a clean finish that pulls consistently shot to shot.

Why it tastes like this
  • Natural process Brazil → chocolate and toasted nut base
  • Washed Peru at altitude → caramel sweetness and clean finish
  • Blending the two → balance that holds black or in milk

Step 01

Choose your brew method

How do you dial in espresso at home?

Espresso is fussier than other brew methods, but it rewards patience. Start with 18g in and 36g out - a 1:2 ratio and aim for a shot time of around 25–35 seconds. That's your baseline. Get that repeatable before you change anything.


From there, let taste guide you. Sour or sharp? Grind slightly finer. Bitter? Go slightly coarser. Weak or flat? Increase your dose and keep your ratio controlled. Change one variable at a time so you know what's actually working.
