Our signature House Blend is currently a mix of two superb Brazilian coffees. A pulped natural blend scoring 84+ called Cascavel Verde and a natural processed IMPACT certified example from the Araujo Reis family at Fazenda Salto in Carmo de Cachoeira. The resulting blend is full of sweet fruit, chocolate and nutty flavours with a delicate citrus acidity.

Cascavel Verde, which translates as green rattlesnake, is named after one of the best pest controllers a farm can have. The South American Rattlesnake plays a key role in controlling rodents on coffee farms and lends its name to this blend of pulped natural coffees sourced from a variety of farms.

Fazenda Salto provides the other element of the blend and the Araujo Reis family, who have been growing coffee for over a century, are one of the very first farmers to be IMPACT certified. This new sustainability initiative in partnership with Sucafina ensures that the core values of environmental protection; care for their workers and their families; and the provision of high-quality coffee in a safe manner are delivered for the benefit of everyone. Fazenda Salto even has a school on site for the children of its 35 workers and other children from the local community.

In turn, we’re also very excited to be the first UK roaster to bring an IMPACT certified coffee to market and the quality this coffee brings to our House Blend is well worth the premium we pay as our contribution to ensuring sustainability and high welfare in growing communities.

Packing & Grinding

With one exception (1Kg Beans) EVERY pack of Drury coffee sold via this website is prepared to order. We weigh, grind (if required) and pack your coffee in our heat-sealed foil bags which are equipped with a one-way valve that allows the freshly roasted coffee to release its wonderful-smelling aromas without letting any oxygen in, ensuring your coffee stays fresher for longer.

We can supply our coffee in the following grinds, in ascending particle size:



Filter Fine
For all paper filters/drip coffee


Espresso
For electric and lever espresso machines.*.


Moka Express
For all stove-top espresso brewers.


Medium Grind
For permanent filters and perculators.


Cafetière
For French Press or plunger coffee makers.


Whole Beans
For grinding at home.


* We calibrate our espresso grind using commercial espresso equipment to give an average across ALL machines and cannot grind specifically for different models. If your machine is particularly sensitive to variation in grind we recommend grinding at home.

A note on Aeropress coffee makers: one of the Aeropress’s great strengths is its flexibility in brewing - dose weight, grind and extracting pressure all have a part to play in this. For that reason one can select any grind from espresso to cafetiere for use in the Aeropress, depending on personal preference. For those new to this form of brewing we would recommend starting off with a medium ground coffee and taking it from there.
