filter coffees

Filter brewing is a very convenient and cost-effective means to bring depth and variety to your coffee offer. Because we offer our filter coffees in pre-dosed, pre-ground sachets, you will have no trouble in delivering the flavours the farmers and our team of roasters have worked so hard to create.

We offer a selection of exclusive single estates and carefully crafted blends for both pour and serve filter machines, and bulk brew hospitality operations.

For more information about stocking these coffees, please contact us.

Guatemala Santa Ana la Huerta

Grown by Rony Asensio and Luis Pedro Zelaya on their family-owned farm, Santa Ana la Huerta is located in Sierra de Las Minas about three hours north-east of Guatemala City. We have committed to purchase from Rony at a sustainable price so he and his family can continue to live their dream of producing high quality coffee while improving the living and working conditions for their farm workers.

Santa Ana La Huerta is exclusive to Union Hand-Roasted and reveals all that is great about exceptional Guatemala coffee. The cup is medium-bodied, with lively flavour tones of honey, chocolate and spice complemented by red fruit notes and faintly smoky overtones.

Rwanda Maraba Bourbon

This clean, fruity and deeply smooth coffee comes from an amazing group of smallholder farmers in the beautiful Maraba district of southwest Rwanda and is the country's first-ever sold as a single origin. We have been working alongside the Abahuzamugambi Ba Kawa co-operative for more than five years now and have made many personal visits to help them develop the quality of their coffee and improve quality of life in their community.

Our efforts have seen a remarkable transformation in the local environment - yet none of it would be possible without the total quality produced by the farmers themselves. The cup has notes of bright citrus and sweet oranges, overlaying delicious creamy milk chocolate tones. Certified Fairtrade.
