What makes coffee “speciality”?

Speciality coffee is graded and assessed for quality before it reaches the roaster. Only coffees that meet strict standards for flavour, cleanliness, and consistency are classed as speciality grade.

These coffees are typically traceable to a specific region or farm, carefully processed after harvest, and roasted with attention to balance rather than speed or volume. The result is a coffee that’s more expressive, distinctive, and enjoyable in the cup.

Why choose speciality coffee?

Many customers choose speciality coffee because it offers:

  • More flavour clarity and character
  • Greater transparency around origin and quality
  • Fresh roasting rather than long shelf life
  • A wider range of tastes and styles

Speciality coffee suits those who enjoy exploring different coffees, but it doesn’t require expert knowledge to enjoy - just curiosity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is speciality coffee?

Speciality coffee refers to high-quality coffee that meets strict grading standards and is chosen for flavour, balance, and consistency.

What does SCA 80+ mean?

The SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) uses a 100-point scoring system to grade coffee quality. Coffees that score 80 points or higher are considered "speciality," meaning they have exceptional flavour clarity, sweetness, and minimal defects.

Is speciality coffee better?

“Better” depends on preference. Speciality coffee offers more character and variety, while regular coffee often focuses on familiarity and consistency. Speciality coffee is carefully grown, processed, and graded for quality. It is fully traceable to the farm, ethically sourced, and roasted to highlight its natural flavour profile - not bitterness or defects.
