Steeped Coffee Bags

Our Steeped Coffee bags are the perfect solution for on-the-go coffee drinkers.

Brew your coffee in under five minutes, with no extra equipment. All you need is a steeped coffee bag, freshly boiled water, and a cup.

At the start of the year, we began testing the bags at the roastery, trying different recipes and grind sizes.

We were pleased to find a delicious recipe, offering a cup that feels close to a hand-brewed filter coffee, providing a clean and balanced cup.

Shantawene, Ethiopia

This coffee was produced by Daniso Horsa in the Damo area of Shantawene, part of the Bensa district in Sidamo. It is grown at around 2200 metres above sea level, where cooler conditions support slow ripening. The trees are traditional heirloom varieties, and the harvest took place in February 2025.

Work on the farm is done by hand, from caring for the trees throughout the year to selectively picking ripe cherries during harvest. Daniso also operates a second farmsite in Faficho, within the Bombe Kebele, contributing to coffee production across the wider Bensa area.

After harvest, the cherries are processed as an anaerobic natural, kept whole and rested before drying. In the cup, this results in a coffee led by sweet red fruits and ripe tropical flavours, shaped by altitude and the steady, careful work of the producer.
