This coffee is sourced from the Kilimbi washing station, located on the shores of Lake Kivu in Rwanda. Processed using the natural method, the entire coffee cherry is dried for 30 days to impart deep fruit flavors into the bean. This coffee offers a creamy, chocolate-rich mouthfeel, complemented by jammy berry sweetness and a subtle, warming hint of sherry on the finish.
Hard Lines started as a small Aeropress pop up bar serving filter coffee in Cardiff and grew over several years into one of Wales's best known specialty roasters. The roastery operates out of Gwaelod y Garth, on the edge of the Brecon Beacons, using two Loring eco friendly roasters: an S35 Kestrel and an S15 Falcon. They run three locations in the Cardiff area, including a café in Penylan inspired by Italian neighbourhood coffee bars. The offering rotates with seasonal fresh crop arrivals, and the brand's distinctive smiley face identity was developed with designer Cadilane.
