We're proud to serve Café Intención coffee, not only for its rich flavour and quality, but because it's a Fairtrade brand that's making a positive impact.

For every pack of Café Intención coffee sold, one shade tree is planted in coffee-growing communities across Peru, Honduras and India, helping farmers protect their crops and support a more sustainable future.

Whether enjoyed hot or as a refreshing iced coffee on a summer's day, every cup has a positive story behind it. 🌱☕
