Special means that something is distinct or out of the ordinary.
At Two Chimps Coffee, we believe that all of our coffees are special and that anyone can enjoy them! Our coffee beans are ethically sourced, of the highest quality, hand-roasted to order and delivered for free. If that wasn’t special enough, try our limited edition coffees that are sooo special, only Two Chimps Coffee drinkers can try them!
Here at Two Chimps Coffee Roasters, we ethically source our Specialty coffee from smallholders & farms worldwide. We always have six single origin coffees to choose from and at least two tasty limited edition coffees that change several times a year too. We want to give you a choice of coffee with a consistent flavour as well as something a little bit more unique…
By ethically sourcing our coffee, we buy through an importer who deals directly with the farm, making the supply chain as short as possible. We only ever use the highest quality arabica beans for our coffee, known as speciality coffee. That’s because we know that the freshest coffee is the best coffee; therefore, we only want to use the highest grade of coffee possible!
The highest quality beans, hand-roasted to order, makes the tastiest cup of coffee. Speciality coffee has been hand processed throughout every step, and we want to continue the beans’ journey in a loving and caring way. This is why we always roast our coffee in small batches, by hand, multiple times each week. This way, we can ensure that every order of delicious coffee that you receive is as fresh as possible.
Coffee Farms
Farmers who grow speciality coffee may have several different varietals growing on their farm. For example, the main harvest of coffee beans may be of the Bourbon varietal, but they may also have several smaller, experimental varietals, known to us as micro lots. If successful, this experimental micro lot of coffee beans could pave the way for new varietals and techniques for the farm. When we source our limited-edition coffees, this is what we look for so we can offer a unique variety of beans to our customers.
And, because it is a micro lot, by definition, there is less of it. This alone means it won’t be around for long! Our range of coffees changes around every 8 to 12 months or so. Once a coffee has been grown, harvested, roasted and drunk then it ceases to exist. When this happens, we look to find a new coffee similar to its predecessor. With our limited editions, however, we don’t necessarily look to follow a particular pattern. This keeps the choices new and exciting!
Roasting
After sourcing, our green beans are stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment to keep them fresh, and we only roast in small batches assuring we never store roasted beans for more than a few days. We know that as soon as coffee has been roasted, it is best between three and fourteen days after. If we stored our coffee already roasted, some might go stale before you even receive it, and we don’t want that!
For our Limited Edition Coffees, We’ve been lucky enough to try some really interesting and unique coffees from all over the world. From fruity Ethiopian coffee with flavours of tropical fruits & zingy acidity to Honduran coffees with fudge-like flavours and cherry, amazing! All of these wonderful flavours are found naturally within the coffee, which is why roasting in small batches, fresh multiple times each week, is very important to us. When we roast, we are particularly careful to not over roast the coffee. If we over roast the beans, we risk losing those lovely flavours and ending up with a burnt coffee. That’s the last thing we want after the beans have been so carefully grown and processed.
If you’re unsure of what to try, then don’t worry; we have something for everyone, and, depending on which brew device you use, we are sure to have a coffee suited to it and your tastebuds perfectly. For example, if you prefer a lighter filter coffee, our light & fruity coffees are a perfect choice. Prefer espresso? Then try our medium dark roast coffee.

Meet the chimp behind this article!
Head Chimp founded Two Chimps alongside Laura in 2016 after being self-employed from the age of 21. He caught the coffee bug from using an at-home roaster, and the rest is history!
What Andy does outside of the treehouse:
When the weather’s nice, Andy loves going on bike rides with his trusty sidekick, microchimp Felix (who always leads the way, of course). Andy also enjoys spending time tending to the family’s vegetable garden, and looking after their at-home farmyard, which includes a cat, two guinea pigs, and six chickens!
Andy says…
“I believe every day is a school day, and I’m always looking for opportunities to stick my head in a book and absorb new knowledge. I also love a problem to solve and fix – there’s no such thing as problems, only solutions.”
