New season Ethiopia Guji — tasting notes of bergamot and panela.Order beans
Specialty coffee · Kelham Island, Sheffield

Roasted slow, served honest.

Ember roasts small batches on a 15-kilo drum every Tuesday and Thursday, then pours them at our café bar—single-origin espressos, filter flights and pastries from a neighbour bakery.

Dog-friendly terrace heated year-round.

Sourcing

Seasonal lots we stand behind

Direct trade

We pay FOB+ premiums and publish farm gate prices on every bag label.

Seasonal rotation

When a lot sells out, we rest with a close cousin—not a mystery blend.

Light to medium roasts

Development time tuned for sweetness on filter and clarity on espresso.

Local delivery

Sheffield postcodes same-day on roast days; nationwide next-day courier.
