This coffee is a single-origin Typica from the farm of Fredis Rodríguez Sosa in the Cajamarca region of Northern Peru. Grown at an exceptional altitude of nearly 2,400 meters, it is processed using a washed, dry fermentation method. The cup profile is characterized by bright, balanced acidity and a syrupy body, with distinct tasting notes of wild strawberry, cranberry, and sugarcane. The finish is noted for being complex and long.
Kickback Coffee was incorporated in 2020 and roasts from a converted brickworks in Pott Shrigley, Cheshire, on the edge of the Peak District. The origin story involves a popcorn maker; the operation has since scaled to a team of over 20. They position themselves as adventure coffee, sponsoring athletes like Olympic rock climber Shauna Coxsey and Annasley Park, the ninth woman to row the Atlantic solo and unsupported. The roastery runs three café locations in Altrincham, Pott Shrigley, and Sale Moor. On the community side, they partner with Coffee4Craig, a homeless charity, and team member Alex ran over 200 miles from Macclesfield to London to raise funds.
