Delivery and Returns

Delivery Update 06/08/25 – Royal Mail 48
Many Royal Mail 48 deliveries are delayed in certain areas due Royal Mail scanning issues and staff shortages. The Royal Mail tracking simply says 'We are expecting it'. This is not correct. Royal Mail collects from Redber daily at 16h00.  All our orders are dispatched within 24 to 48 hours.  Please allow a little extra time for your order to arrive. If your parcel is urgent we suggest you use the 24 hour service. 

Due to the poor services our customers are receiving from Royal Mail we will be reviewing the companies we use for delivery in the coming months. 

You can find the latest updates from Royal Mail here.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Colombia Excelso Huila Coffee Origin and Details

Colombia Excelso Huila coffee is cultivated in the rich, volcanic soils of Huila, a region located in the Andean mountains of Colombia. Known for its perfect coffee-growing conditions, Huila has altitudes ranging from 1,200 to 2,000 meters above sea level, providing an ideal environment for growing high-quality Arabica beans. The Excelso grade refers to medium to large-sized beans, carefully selected to ensure consistency and superior flavour.

The extra dark roast profile of this coffee enhances the natural richness and depth of the Huila beans, delivering a bold, full-bodied cup with low acidity and a rich combination of dark chocolate and orange notes. Produced by smallholder farmers using traditional methods, this coffee embodies the dedication and craftsmanship of Colombian coffee growers who make Huila one of the world’s top coffee-producing regions.

  • Country: Colombia
  • Region: Huila
  • Altitude: 1,200 to 2,000 m above sea level
  • Variety: Caturra, Typica, Bourbon
  • Processing Method: Washed

Colombia Excelso Huila Extra Dark Roast is an excellent choice for those who enjoy a strong, bold cup with a rich, complex taste that highlights the best of Colombian coffee.

Significant prices rises (60%) and lengthy delivery

I can't justify redber any more unfortunately. The consistency in the quality of roast has been declining for a while now, and the deliveries have been taking almost a week.

Now that redber have put their prices up from about £12 per kg to £19 per kg, overnight, with no changes to quality or delivery etc, it's just not really worth it for me anymore.

Shame, since I've been with them for years now, but was already looking for an alternative before the price rises came in.

Also, while I've had some very inconsistent roasts, every time I've complained, I've felt like it's been long winded getting a replacement or refund. I've been getting the same roast for years so I know if you've burned the beans or haven't roasted them long enough...
