Calon, Welsh for heart. This label honours the Gresford Colliery Disaster lift shaft. It’s a respectful tribute to a defining chapter in local history, carrying remembrance and solidarity into the bag design.
About the coffee
About the coffee
Calon is built for comfort and balance, blending the sweetness and body of Brazilian natural lots with the clarity from high-grown washed Ugandan coffee. The result is easy to drink but still layered: marshmallow sweetness up front, then chocolate and toasted nut through the finish. Reliable, approachable, and suited to daily brewing.
Why it tastes like this

Calon is a Blended Speciality Coffee
This profile is built by combining two processing styles in one blend: natural coffee for sweetness and body, washed coffee for clarity and structure. Each method contributes something different to extraction and cup balance.
The natural component adds depth, texture and a rounder mouthfeel, while the washed component keeps flavours cleaner and more defined. That balance helps the cup feel fuller without becoming heavy or muddy.
For espresso, this gives you a forgiving but precise profile when dialling in at home. You get sweetness and body at standard ratios, with enough clarity to fine-tune grind and yield. For practical setup tips, read our espresso dial-in guide.

First purchase from Wrexham Bean Co. - I usually order online from another company but fancied a change! I am really impressed! Out of the 2 that I ordered this one is my favourite! Really gorgeous flavour! Would reorder & recommend to others!
Great coffee. Love to see a local company roasting great tasting coffee.
Enjoying my continued use of Calon. Smooth taste with zero bitterness. I constantly sing its praises. Nothing better than a cup of Wrexham in the morning.
Fab coffee, it's actually made me a bit of a coffee snob now, so much nicer than anything you can buy in the shops
Honestly. Wrexham Bean Company as a business aswell as the products are above any expectation I had. It's just an absolute bonus the coffee tastes incredible aswell. I love the free sticker and profile cards aswell. Just a pleasure to buy from.
Delicious coffee
Fantastic coffee. Brought as a gift, and totally hooked.
Very tasty coffee. Great for lazy weekend mornings, especially when eaten with a croissant!
Delicious coffee so good we have it on subscription now
Really tasty coffee, with a lovely chocolate and nutty flavour, a real treat of a drink
Lovely flavour, best coffee to wake up to in the mornings!
Great tasting coffee, awesome service and nothings too much trouble for Wrexham bean always putting the customer first 🤎
I love the subtle taste of the Calon blend, lovely at any time of the day.
I’ve tried most of your blends and many other brands but this Calon blend ticks all the boxes and ill be ordering more. . .
Really love the flavours, I can really taste the chocolate in this blend. I get a gorgeous crema on my espresso shots too.
Delivery was super fast and these beans are great value for money compared to other roasters. Highly recommend!
A very smooth coffee with a
Lovely nutty flavour with hints of dark chocolate
We like it as a cortardo and just a simple espresso :u1F90E:
A lovely blend, smooth and robust. Quick delivery. very pleased. Will be reordering in the future.
i have had the Calon and the African Moon. i love them both, i have been using it in a Wacaco Pipimoka, my very cofficianado colleague uses it for pour over. i love that this is local too, im from Buckley. one thing to note is that you do not note down the roast ?
I've tried a few local roasters but calon is by far the best taste and best value, beating most of the local competition by about £5. Well worth the buy, thanks guys!
Excellent as always

Absolutely Delish!
No nasty aftertaste, light on the tongue, beautifully chocolatey and nutty. :ok_hand::skin-tone-3:
Incredible flavours.
Very nice coffee me are a nice cappuccino
Very nice coffee! Looking forward to trying some of the other blends. Definitely won't be going back to pods.
Not too bitter, and well balanced. The perfect flavour profile for people who like a refreshing coffee with notes you can taste! Definitely my favourite so far!
The thick crema this produced made for a tasty latte. WBCs coffee honestly sets me up for the day. I can’t recommend this blend enough.
