the battle blend, created in collaboration with triathlete lucy charles-barclay, is a medium-dark roast blended from colombian, brazilian, and hawaiian kona beans, all processed using the washed method. washed processing removes the fruit layer before drying, producing a cleaner cup that lets the beans' natural character come through. the medium-dark roast brings a fuller body and lower acidity, making it well suited to espresso-based drinks where structure and consistency matter. if you're pulling shots at home or dialling in a milk-based drink, this blend is built to hold up.

the medium-dark roast level suits espresso well, where the fuller body and lower acidity translate into a solid shot that holds up in milk-based drinks like flat whites or lattes.
about altitude coffee london
if you're making the trek out to hornchurch for whatever reason, unit 2 on hornchurch road isn't the kind of place you stumble into by accident. altitude coffee roasts in-house, which means what ends up in your cup started as a deliberate decision somewhere upstream, not a default wholesale order. that matters more than people realize. the neighborhood is east london's quieter suburban edge, rm11 territory, and the fact that serious specialty roasting is happening here says something about how spread out london's coffee scene has actually become. you don't need to be in shoreditch for this. the roastery setup means you're closer to the source than most city-center cafes can claim. start with a filter if you want to understand what they're actually doing with the beans.
