Caught on a Kitchen Workout

While this coffee tastes awesome in every device, our favourites are an espresso machine, Aeropress & moka pot.

Head over to our brew guides for making coffee for more.

All of our coffees come to us from small farms and estates. This means that when a coffee has been harvested, processed and drunk, it’s gone for good. Our other coffees change every 8-12 months, while our limited editions change more frequently, most likely every 3-4 months.

Unlike our regular range, limited-edition coffees don’t share flavour profiles with their predecessors. Each one is a beautiful, unique coffee we’ve found, loved, and wanted to roast. If you want to try great coffee from different regions, then don’t miss out on the limited-edition range. Because like all our coffees, when they’re gone, they’re gone!

Coffee has only been grown in any kind of quantity in Honduras for just over 200 years. In fact, prior to 1900, it was essentially grown in gardens and less than 10 percent of the coffee harvested in the country in 1894 was exported. Fast forward to the present day and Honduras is now the largest coffee producer in Central America, and one of the largest exporters of specialty coffee like Caught on a Kitchen Workout.

Oropendulas who produce this coffee under the stewardship of veteran farmer Moises Sosa, is a collective effort from seven farms in the mountainous region of El Paraiso, where farms reach altitudes of up to 2,000 metres above sea level, making this one of the highest areas of the country.

Once harvested, the coffee here is washed, fermented for 24 hours and dried on a combination of patios and raised beds.

Honduras has benefited from experiencing the most significant growth in export volume after the emergence of specialty coffee. This means that new farmers are focussing on producing the very best quality coffee from the outset, training up and coming farmers as they go, rather than learning new skills to meet the demand.

A process known as cupping is used to find the quality score of coffee. This quality score will determine if a coffee can be granted the title of speciality coffee. A target score of 80 or above is set for a coffee to be given this title. If it scores lower, it doesn’t reach the grade. If it scores 80 or more, it’s one of the best coffees in the world and makes for an awesome brew. Read our cupping page to learn more about cupping coffee.

You’ll never find an over-roasted coffee at Two Chimps. Unlike high street coffee giants, we use the roasting process to show off all the delicious natural flavours and aromas in our coffees, not to make different coffees taste the same. If we were to roast too dark, the natural flavours would be lost and replaced by bitterness.

Some big-name roasters might over-roast to mask unpleasant flavours in their low-grade beans. But our coffees are all top-notch, so there are no problems to fix, just awesomeness to enjoy!

When you choose Two Chimps for all your coffee needs, it’s not just us Chimps who start to happy dance! Your support also promotes:

• Ethically sourced coffee via a small supply chain with no middleman
• A small carbon-neutral business
• Farmers getting paid 30 – 150% more
• Programmes committed to improving the coffee industry

High five!

Some people like working out in private, and what better place to get the blood pumping than in the kitchen with a brew in hand!
