TRUST COFFEE

£12.40

Midnight Flyer is back, from the wonderful team at Omwani and Agri Evolve, who are working together to bring prosperity and a bright future to hundreds of Ugandan farmers in the Rwenzori mountains. This year's lot is sweet and juicy with a well balanced profile of caramel and fresh peach.

THE TASTE OF POSITIVE CHANGE

Carefully crafted and undeniably delicious, the Trust range showcases the best of specialty coffee with an impact.

All the coffees we buy adhere to the Yallah Buying Standards. Trust coffees will, by default, meet this criteria, but they will also come with something extra. Whether it’s shipped over by sailboat with almost zero carbon emissions, grown using agroforestry methods, or supporting social projects in that region. Trust coffees come with a direct impact, and story to tell.

BUYING STANDARDS

It’s really important for us to work with trusted partners in our supply chain who can provide us with honesty and traceability. We have created a set of guidelines to help us source coffee in a way we feel aligns with our values and beliefs. There are three core categories that we think outline the most important factors to consider when purchasing coffee: economic transparency, social relationship, and environmental efforts.

OUR PACKAGING

Our 250g bags and 1kg bags are LDPE 4 packaging, a type of soft plastic, very common in food packaging. For home consumers LDPE 4 is still not curbside recyclable, but is accepted at local recycling points and dedicated soft plastics deposit points. Find a location near you.

ROASTING ON RENEWABLE ENERGY

We’ve recently switched to a new electric Typhoon roaster which allows us to significantly reduce our carbon footprint. We selected it for its capacity, efficiency, and to maintain the same high-quality roasting. This transition also marks a step toward our long-term goal of becoming carbon neutral, with a commitment to using 100% renewable electricity. Though the installation required a significant investment in new power infrastructure, the move reinforces our dedication to sustainability and strengthens our promise to customers that we deliver on our environmental commitments.

Country of Origin

Rwenzori Mountains, Uganda

Uganda's washed coffees bring smooth body and ripe stone fruit flavours. With a focus on farmer education and implementation of modern practices, the quality of Ugandan coffee has increased exponentially over the past decade, an improvement that continues to grow with the help of green exporters like Omwani.

Katanda Community

Midnight Flyer is so named for the race undertaken to get the cherries to the washing station after being hand-picked from the trees. During the harvest, the washing stations in this region are often a hive of activity at night. The cherries are picked by day; it’s crucial they get processed as quickly as possible in the cool night air before they get spoiled by the blazing sun the following day. It’s a long day of work, but so worth it for the amazingly consistent quality of the coffees from here. Each kilo we purchased from Midnight Flyer has provided 3.5 coffee seedlings for a nursery in the Rwenzori mountains, in partnership with Omwani Coffee Company and Agri Evolve.
Environmental Efforts

Agroforestry

Agroforestry is a way of growing coffee alongside other trees and plants, either by planting coffee in established forests or purposefully planting other cash crops to grow alongside. This is a technique that is often practiced on Ugandan farms. It can help combat the impacts of climate change in coffee growing countries, as well as maximising profits for producers.
