Facts

  • Tastes Like

    Sourced from smallholder farmers in San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas, this awesome brew has unique flavours that can only be found in Mexican coffee. Its smooth, chocolatey base is balanced by a zing of crisp apple and fresh lemon and a subtle floral finish. It will make Dad swoon!

  • How to Brew

    Ah-may-zing in every device, but especially suited to a AeroPress, Moka Pot or Espresso Machine.

  • Limited Edition

    Whether you’re looking to experiment or just fancy something different, limited-edition coffees are the ones for you!

    Our limited editions are utterly tantalising and a tad more eccentric. They will often be the exciting results of new coffee experiments or avant-garde coffee trials. Eeeee-xciting!

    We source all our coffees from small farms, so when they’re gone, they’re gone. Our regular coffee line-up changes around once a year, while our limited editions change every 3-4 months. Be sure to grab a bag while you can!

  • Behind the Scenes

    This coffee has been grown in San Cristóbal de las Casas in the Chiapas region. In this area, 44% of the population is indigenous, which is recognisable from their beautiful handmade clothing and traditional way of life. The Mexican government has named areas like this Pueblo Mágico or ‘Magic Town’. This is to acknowledge that the region is bursting with symbology and transcendent history, which in turn represent the country’s heritage and national identity.

    The Chiapas area boasts fertile soil supporting a wide range of agriculture, including cacao, sugar cane, mangos, bananas, and, of course, coffee! The shade of indigenous trees surrounding these small farms protects the coffee cherries, allowing them to grow and ripen slowly. Each smallholder farmer typically cultivates one to two hectares, using perfected coffee processing techniques that have created a high-quality, complex taste in the cup.

    Only the best cherries are selected to create this speciality brew. After de-pulping, the coffee beans ferment for 12-17 hours before being sundried on small patios.

     

  • Scores on the Doors

    Remember that much-coveted A* grade at school? Well, speciality coffee is the A* of the coffee world. And these Skedaddle beans are some of the best – they’ve got a score of 84!

    Certified ‘Q graders’ evaluate the coffee using a tasting process called cupping. Then, they score the coffee out of 100. If it scores 80 points or more, it gets the speciality medal. Anything lower, and it doesn’t. Here at Two Chimps, we only source and roast speciality beans because we can follow their full traceability. They taste miles better than anything low-grade, too!

  • Roasting

    Roasting is a magical process. We take green coffee beans and carefully roast them into aromatic, chocolate-coloured beans that taste drop-dead gorgeous.

    Each element of the roasting process is key, from the temperature to the time. Before roasting, we analyse the density and moisture content of the beans and then adapt our bespoke methods accordingly.

    Over-roasting is something we never do (it’s banned at Two Chimps!). If we’re looking for a light and fruity roast, we will shorten the roast time ever so slightly, while medium-dark roasts require a little longer in the roaster to give the coffee’s natural sugars time to caramelise. However we roast, we always time it to the second to get it just right!

  • Why buy speciality coffee from us?

    What’s the point of speciality coffee? Is it just fancy packaging and tech talk? Nope – it’s so, so much more! All our speciality coffees are hand-picked and hand-sorted to ensure faultless beans. Unlike commodity coffee, which includes bitter, under-ripe cherries, speciality coffee farmers only pick their cherries at peak ripeness.

    Bulk picking means supermarket roasters have to over-roast their beans to get rid of impurities. What do you get from this? Nothing but bitter and burnt flavours. Your Two Chimps coffee is the exact opposite – vibrant, fresh and perfectly roasted!

    What’s more, we hand-roast our speciality beans multiple times a week to ensure we’re always delivering the freshest coffee to your door. Dull, warehouse-stored coffee is dreary; only fresh is best for Father’s Day and beyond!
