Rave Coffee Roasters Review
These guys are beasts in the speciality coffee industry. They have been around for a while now and I even recall hearing about them before I started my journey into speciality coffee. The ethics and brand values of Rave Coffee Roasters are apparent as soon as you click onto their website or any of their social media accounts. They are extremely laid back and want to make their customers feel at ease right away, they are one hundred per cent coffee people and often visit the origins of their coffee.

Coffee Origin
They are also involved in a couple of very interesting projects, one is a research programme funded alongside a number of roasters throughout the world to gain a better understanding of leaf rust and begin to eradicate this coffee disease from certain areas of the coffee-growing world. The other is a program to combat the unsustainability of speciality coffee in a couple of Colombian coffee growing regions. Around half of the farmers in the Pitalito group sell their washed coffee in the wet form to drying station intermediaries.
In the past, families would dry their own coffee and sell it on the commodity market, not for a high or predictable price, but at least capturing that valuable step of the process. Wet selling is a new situation, brought about by climate change, which has exacerbated an already challenging situation. Rainy seasons continue far longer than before, rendering traditional farmer-owned drying facilities unsuitable.
Today, more modern and costly driers are required. Intermediaries have now come in and bought the wet coffee off the farmers for extremely low prices.
What To Expect
I had a chat to their roaster and green buyer Brooke who has a wealth of experience in the industry and is super friendly and personable. They have an air of approachability and cater to everyone, whether you’re a seasoned vet like Brooke or a Newbie to the scene, there will be a coffee available geared to your tastes.
