At Pod and Parcel, we go beyond the ordinary in coffee craftsmanship through our Roast Testing Revelry, a pivotal part of our 'Testing Tasting Culture.' Here, the magic unfolds as beans meet heat, creating a rich and complex tapestry of flavours that defines the essence of our coffee.

It's a dance between data and sensory finesse, where our fancy machines reveal the secrets of heat and coffee reactions, but it's the roasters who interpret the coffee's cues and make those game-changing adjustments as the roast unfolds.

Cupping Adventure
The bit more
At Pod and Parcel, we elevate coffee appreciation through a process called cupping, not a dance move but our secret to brew brilliance. In this 'Testing Tasting Culture' hot water flows over freshly ground beans, creating a flavourful symphony.
With two spoons—one in the cup, one in our mouths—we decode coffee nuances, distinguishing between nutty, chocolaty, or fruity notes. Cupping isn't just a quality check; it's a crash course in coffee culture, a flavour fiesta influenced by weather, altitude, soil, and Pod and Parcel magic.
This ritual unveils the journey from bean to cup, proving we don't just make coffee; we orchestrate a taste symphony. Join the Pod and Parcel cupping adventure—sip, swirl, spit!
