About

Black Cat Coffee is a supplier to the public and trade of premium quality, responsibly sourced coffee. Working from our base in the heart of rural Norfolk, we hand select and roast the finest green beans available. We have a particular focus on Fair Trade and RFA certified coffee and take seriously our environmental responsibility through sustainable sourcing and waste and energy management.

We are a true ‘micro roastery’ where everything is done by sight, sound and smell. The small batches we roast in allow us total control, you will always receive the freshest coffee possible with a helpful roasted on date right on the bag.

We carefully assess each green coffee that arrives to us and develop a unique roast profile to highlight and amplify the natural qualities and character of the origin. We always strive to present you with the best possible reflection of a coffee's individual character whilst roasting to develop the rich satisfying coffee flavours we fell in love with.

We see ourselves as far away as possible from the generic tasting supermarket and chain coffee shop's offerings and we delight in introducing people to the abundant variation that exists in the coffee world.

David at Black Cat got in touch with us during the first 2020 lockdown and sent us over some fantastic coffee samples (the Pineapple Candy was especially interesting). Now, whilst we couldn't get that coffee into the subscription we kept in touch and are really happy to finally showcase his Norfolk roastery to our members.
