About us
We are Colombia Coffee Roasters, a family-run specialty coffee company sourcing, roasting and serving single-origin Colombian coffees since 2012. We are based in Oxford, where all our coffee is roasted in-house and served through our cafés, roastery and online store.
Sustainability, traceability and long-term relationships with producers are at the heart of everything we do. We work directly with coffee farmers across Colombia, many of whom we have partnered with for years, to ensure high quality, consistency and responsible farming practices.
From sourcing in Colombia to roasting in Oxford and serving in our cafés, we manage the full coffee journey to deliver freshness and quality in every cup.
