OCTOBER 2024 DISCOVERY | NEROLI'S DEBUT
SILKY, TOFFEE, MATCHA
ABOUT THE COFFEE
This month, our super roaster Neroli has stepped up to the plate and taken the lead in creating the roast profile for this delicious Discovery Coffee! Once you’ve tried it, we’re sure you’ll agree she’s knocked it out of the park*, with silky notes of toffee and matcha.
These beans come from a neighbouring farm to one of our mainstay coffees. A trailblazer in his region, this producer has been growing top-notch speciality coffees since the 1990s - learning from experts and scientists along the way to create a high quality and sustainable crop year-on-year.
*Despite the puns, baseball isn’t really her thing. Wild swimming, on the other hand…
Being a medium roast, our September Discovery Coffee tastes delicious no matter how you choose to brew it.
Can't wait to find out where this coffee is from?
WHAT IS A DISCOVERY COFFEE?
Each month we introduce a new and interesting coffee from around the world. This could be a new origin or region that we haven’t sourced from before, a new process or varietal, or something seasonal with a unique flavour profile.
The full origin and coffee information is purposely hidden - you can only find out where this coffee is from by scanning the QR code on the front of the bag. This is simply because A) we want to introduce the element of surprise, B) we want to remove origin bias (preconceptions about a coffee based on where it comes from), and C) we love making up the clues for each new coffee!
We only have a limited supply of each new Discovery Coffee, and each one is only available from the 1st until the last day of the month. Discovery Coffee Subscribers and those who are signed up to our newsletter have first priority on this coffee, so don't wait too long if you'd like to try something new!

RE-CYCLE
As part of our Discovery Coffee initiative, we’re incredibly pleased to partner up with Re-Cycle (Bikes to Africa), a small charity who recycle bikes from the UK and ships them to rural communities in Africa, changing people’s lives for the better and saving the environment at the same time. Chimney Fire Coffee will be donating 25p for every 250g bag or £1 for every 1kg bag of Discovery Coffee to support their work and help make it easier for people to get to work, school or other necessities. For every 28 kilos of coffee we roast, a single bike plus spare parts will be sent to Africa.
We’re really excited about introducing this coffee to you and hope it will give some an opportunity to showcase new and interesting origins, flavours and stories. We also want to highlight that feedback is welcome! Whether you really like or dislike a coffee, please let us know - you never know, we might end up sourcing it and adding it to our core range for the next crop year!
