Our instant coffee is among the best there is. Why? Because we use only the finest ingredients – top quality Arabica beans sourced from our network of carefully chosen suppliers around the world.

After they have been thoroughly inspected by our experts, we bring the green beans into Europe. We clean them, roast them to achieve the desired flavour (from mild to espresso), grind them and then brew to extract the coffee.

The freshly filtered liquid concentrate then needs to be dried. Spray drying produces a fine powder coffee by subjecting it to a warm jet of air. Agglomeration combines the powder to form granules. Freeze drying is the process where the concentrate is ‘shock’ frozen, chipped into granules and then dried gently in a vacuum.

There are many other techniques we use in our production processes. Some of these we claim as our own. For instance, we were the first to produce freeze-dried coffee in Europe. We were also the first to put plastic lids on our coffee and use induction sealing of our jars, thus avoiding contamination with glue.

Our aim is to bring our customers an exciting range of the finest quality coffee. We’ll do whatever it takes to achieve this.
