A shout out to West Cork Coffee - I had an issue with delivery and customer service was spot on getting it sorted and generously refunding the order due to the delay (courier issue, no fault of WCC).

I ordered from them for the first time about 3 weeks ago - super happy - threw in a 50g sample of another bean too which was a really nice touch - wish more places would do sample sizes tbh. Great way to try a new bean!

What did you order. Coming to the end of my 3fe beans, which I have to say were fantastic as I got 25% off at the time before lock down.

The Brazil - Fazenda Sertão (my favourite - would absolutely reorder on a regular basis!) and the Colombia - Finca El Nivel - also excellent. I like a nice rich, chocolately coffee mind you, not one for the citrusy ones!

Got a sample of the Peru and it was very nice too - slightly preferred the two I ordered though.

I'm going to try these guys out. Seems to be a good bit of word for them. How long did delivery take take?

Assume they roast to order, or once a week?

Every time I've ordered from WCC it's been at most 2-3 days after. He roasts on a regular basis earlier on in the week.

Although currently the postal system is a mess, it might be a bit longer, but that's the same with basically anything at the moment.

Just got 3 bags, delighted with them.

I may have just got lucky but ordered the 23rd, the roast date was the 24th March and arrived on the 25th! I imagine there may be courier delays at the moment that are worse than when I ordered, but even with a few extra days it would be fresh.

@Caviardreams,

Ordered .

Thanks

Just wondering if anyone has tried the ariosa coffee subscription?
One 500g bag per month for 6 months is 90 quid.

mad m · 21-04-2020 7:10pm

Got delivery today from WCC. They threw in a handmade bar of dark chocolate. Roast date was yesterday. Ordered Sunday evening. Very quick delivery.

Squidgy Black · 21-04-2020 7:16pm

I see Indigo and Cloth have a Lychee Process coffee from Nomad on their website. Very tempted but I've way too much in the freezer at the moment and €32 for 200g is a bit pricey for an anaerobic.

Is there a list of Irish roasters anywhere that sell online?

I would like to support small irish business as much as possible right now.

Thanks.

I went for the Brazil - Fazenda Sertão .

To add to this. If you buy Coffee Angel, you're by extension supporting Bailies who roast their beans or so I've been told by 3 of their baristas at different times.

Yep few different places doing their own labelling on roasters stuff, Bear Market do the same with Silverskin I think.

Soma is another one I left off the list, forgot they roast their own too.

Wow. That's brilliant. Thanks so much, it's great to see so many on the list. Let's hope they all get a share.

Thanks.

They also threw in a small sample of Tano Ndogo beans from Kenya which were delicious!

Don't see the kenyan bean on the site... might give this one a try when I order next week: https://www.westcorkcoffee.ie/shop/eugenia-nohemy-diaz as well as replenishing my stock of the Brazilian bean

I've had their house blend a few times at the cafe - i liked it "An Fear Mearbh." chocolate/caramel vibe

They do small runs of different blends every month or 2. not sure what their current stock is like with the current situation. Always seem to have at least 2 or 3 selections available.

As much as I love Stone Valley, they seem to be pricing themselves out when compared to other roasters based in West Cork alone. Taking the three I know and comparing their prices for a 1KG bag of wholebean Brazilian Coffee:

https://www.westcorkcoffee.ie/shop/sertao :: €36.00 (20% ATM = €28.80) (Free Shipping)
http://redstrandcoffee.com/product/brazil/ :: €31.00 (+€5 shipping)
https://www.stonevalleyroasters.com/shop/harvestmoon :: €40.00 (+€5 shipping)

SV coffee is seriously good, but I just find it hard to justify the price over the other two..

Slattsy · 28-04-2020 11:53am

Got a couple of bags from Cloud Picker. Not that impressed.

I might try Dreambeans that someone posted.

Any recommendations for red strand, looked at website and realise I know the guy who runs it so when my gear arrives I'd prefer to support him.

Interested to know why you weren't impressed? Were they the same coffee or a selection, were they stale, poorly roasted?

I'm interested as I have some on the way... Not that I know how to get the best out of it yet, but I'd like to know what I'm dealing with.
