Buxton Coffee Roasters

buxton coffee roasters takes roasting seriously, and that single-mindedness shows. based out of harpur hill business park, this isn't a cafe that happens to roast on the side, it's a roasting operation first, which means what ends up in your cup has been thought about at the source, not as an afterthought. the derbyshire peaks don't exactly attract specialty coffee infrastructure, so the fact that something like this exists on kiln lane says a lot about the people behind it. you get the sense that the roasting decisions are made with real intention, not just to fill bags. if you're in the area and you want coffee that didn't travel through six middlemen before reaching you, start with whatever single origin they're currently running.
