Raising the Bar for Decaf Coffee in the UK
Equally significant was Beanworks’ success with its Condor Decaf Coffee, which was awarded 2 stars, making it the joint highest-rated decaf coffee in the UK this year. The Colombian single-origin impressed the judging panel with “a burst of juicy redcurrant acidity, balanced by toffee sweetness, finishing with a layer of dark chocolate.”
“We’re absolutely delighted with this year’s results. Winning our first-ever 3-star award, alongside multiple other stars, is an incredible milestone for our team and our incredible farming partners around the world,” said David Blair of Beanworks.
Innovation of Coffee, Recognised
The awards also shone a spotlight on innovation at coffee origin. The 3-star winning Jardines del Edén highlights the rare Papayo varietal, grown by Felipe Arcila, a fourth-generation Colombian producer in the Quindio region.
"We're equally pleased that the Awards have recognised the innovation of coffee growers," Blair continued. "Felipe Arcila's work with the Papayo varietal represents the cutting edge of coffee production, and we've carefully profiled and roasted it to showcase it at its very best.”
A Well-Rounded Awards Haul
The roastery's complete haul included one 3-star, three 2-star, and three 1-star awards, demonstrating consistency across their range of Award Winning Coffee Beans. Alongside the headline winners, notable mentions include:
