About The Coffee

If you like coffee with or without milk and something complex and a bit fruity, without being OTT, then you might just be in the right place.

Firstly Formula 6 is a blend of specialty coffee that allows us to buy a broad range of seasonal beans from all over the world. During the year there are subtle changes in the blend’s flavour profile as the components change. Due to the fact that we keep the same percentages of the process types consistent and subtly tweak the roast to optimise its flavour potential. For many, Formula 6 is their go-to coffee. House Blends offer great value too.

There are never two years the same but we can only plan for up to 6 months ahead as we just don’t know what lies ahead. Look at the last few years! Coffee is still very much a seasonal affair, although there are some coffees that we try and keep for longer.

What is in the blend right now?

20% Tanzania Ngila Estate Karibu Lot

20% Uganda Rwenzori washed

20% Brazilian Tres Barras

20% Brazilian Fazenda Alianca

20% Ethiopian  Suke Quto Natural process

Formula 6 Espresso Beans change periodically. Fresh additions to the blend make it both a challenge and a delight ..with ridiculously good naturals (where we can) and top estate coffees too. Also, the calibre of coffee in Formula 6 seriously takes some beating. The sweet clean acidity and the ripe, balanced fruit sugars work really well.

James Gourmet Coffee

Who are we?

James Gourmet Coffee (JGC from here on in) is a small family company hidden away in the market town of Ross-on-Wye. Our team is small but dedicated to the production of high quality specialty coffee. Like a family, we stick together and more than half of our team have been in over a decade, at the time of writing! We are SO fortunate as our business is ALL about people.

What are we?

We are a professional single site, non-cafe owning coffee roasting company that predominantly serves the Food Service Trade. (Not being fans of the word Industry for numerous reasons, don’t get Peter started). JGC is simply about people and gourmet coffee. As a company we deliver incredible value for money, making specialty coffee approachable and affordable. In our company we only sell one quality of coffee which is specialty. We don’t reduce our coffee spend at the cost of branding or shiny, slick sales people’s sales bonuses. One quality, one price that we can deliver at consistently.

Why are we still current?

JGC has been a roasting and learning curve, that has been a privilege and an adventure connecting with growers, suppliers and customers from all over the world to people on our doorstep. We have worked with big names in the coffee world and whilst keeping our values have led the way with the first eco roaster in Europe and now investing in recyclable packaging because we can. One thing that experience gives us is a little foresight and the next few years of coffee are about to get as exciting as the first were. Environmental credentials and real sustainability are high up on everyone’s list, so we hope there will be more players paying the real cost too, to make a long term future for coffee in the UK and beyond.
