This page holds immense significance on our website, as it presents an opportunity to introduce ourselves, our values, and the work that we do. It has been emphasized that this is a crucial platform for us to convey our identity and beliefs to you.

Who are We?

As an independent, family-owned business, we possess an unquenchable curiosity and an eagerness to revolutionize the way coffee is served.

Our company's origins date back to 2009, when we made it our goal to offer high-quality coffee to people from all walks of life. We have devoted the past ten years and beyond to expanding our knowledge, persevering through challenges, and cultivating something far beyond a mere coffee brand. At Ue Coffee Roasters, we recognize that achieving greatness requires a team with a shared passion and unwavering dedication to excellence.

Let’s put it down to experience

We value experience at all levels, whether it be the interactions of our customers in our retail stores or wholesale partnerships, or the experiences of our own team. Achieving excellence requires extensive training and a thorough understanding of coffee, including the roasting process and the scientific aspects, so that we can provide unparalleled support to our customers.

Cogs in a well-oiled machine

Our belief is that our people are more than mere cogs. Rather, we foster their talent and prioritize honing their skills and craft, thereby benefiting both our customers and trade partners. This emphasis on excellence is evident in every aspect of our work, and is a testament to our unwavering commitment to our values.

What is in the box!?

Our focus extends beyond the mere provision of great speciality coffee, as we devote our efforts to transcend the usual limitations. Our meticulous sourcing process entails a great deal of work, where we prioritize ethical and sustainable procurement from growers with whom we maintain long-standing trade relationships.

As responsible roasters, we aim to do justice to the inherent qualities of each coffee bean, having been cognizant of the arduous journey it undertakes to reach us. We believe that the roasting process is critical to the creation of a remarkable cup of coffee, and we strive to showcase the unique characteristics that make each variety, origin, or farm distinct and thrilling.

From Oxfordshire and beyond

Whilst our base may be situated in Oxfordshire, we transcend mere cartography as our roots extend beyond a singular geographic location. Our team comprises individuals from various regions within the UK and Europe, and our range of coffees originate from an array of destinations, spanning from Central and South America to Africa and beyond.

Our conviction lies in the belief that coffee represents more than just a pleasurable beverage or a necessary morning fix; it possesses the potential to make positive impacts upon communities near and far. Our Barista Foundation, established with the aim of aiding global and local communities, enables us to contribute to a better world.
