Greetings, Coffee Connoisseurs!

 

Welcome to Aesthete, your premier destination for exquisite Ultra-Speciality Coffee, transcending the boundaries of conventional Speciality Coffee. Our journey begins with a coffee aficionado, an art enthusiast, and a space engineer who embarked on a mission to bring you coffees that are truly out of this world.

 

Who are we, you ask?

We are the meticulous roasters of Ultra Speciality Coffee, situated in the heart of Scotland.

At Aesthete, our roasting process is an art form—light and vibrant, reminiscent of a peacock's feather. We pride ourselves on sourcing direct-trade supreme varietals from micro, nano, and picolots, pushing the boundaries of what is considered standard.

Notably, we were the trailblazers in introducing Panama's Chevas Coffee Estate experimental coffee to the United Kingdom.

 

For whom do we craft these extraordinary roasts? 

Aesthete caters to the refined taste buds of advanced speciality coffee enthusiasts, those who shun the First and Second Wave coffee in pursuit of a higher, more nuanced experience.

We are here for individuals who delve into the intricacies of processing methods, exhibit a keen interest in experimental processes, and keep pace with the latest in coffee through sources like Lucia Solis podcast.

 

Why does Aesthete exist? 

Our mission is to share our unwavering passion for exceptionally great coffee, ensuring that your first sip is an unforgettable experience that lingers in your memory.

We are here for those who seek to expand their Speciality Coffee horizons.

 

What sets us apart from the rest?

Aesthete transcends the ordinary Speciality Coffee landscape by offering rare varietals in extremely limited quantities. We not only engage in direct trade but also collaborate closely with farmers to create unique processes. Transparency is our hallmark—we openly share yield and price information for each lot.

Operating independently and roasting in small batches, we bring you an unparalleled experience with our exclusive Reserve queue. Be on the lookout for announcements about lots available for reservation, and if enough enthusiasts participate, together we can indulge in the finest coffee you've ever tasted.

Aesthetes, step into a world where coffee becomes an art, and every sip tells a unique story.
