Your guide to Competition

  • What is competition coffee?

    Competition coffee is something truly special. It’s the kind of coffee that catches the attention of expert judges, even after they’ve sampled dozens in a day.

    When we select competition coffees, we’re looking for beans that are bold, complex, and full of flavour. These coffees don’t just taste great—they stand out with clarity and character, making every sip memorable.

  • How should I roast competition coffee?

    Roasting competition coffee is a unique process. These coffees are top quality and often available in very limited amounts, so every roast needs to be just right.

    The goal is to bring out the coffee’s finest qualities. A carefully developed roast profile will showcase its complexity, highlight its unique flavours, and let the coffee truly shine.

Your questions, answered

What is the Green Coffee Collective?

We’re a community of coffee producers and sourcing experts, all working together to make green coffee easy to access—whether you’re a hobby roaster at home or a professional roasting hundreds of tonnes a year. Our platform is designed to simplify buying green coffee, just like any other online shopping experience. No fuss, just great coffee at your fingertips.

Are your coffees ethically and sustainably sourced?

Absolutely! We source all our coffees either directly from producers or through trusted sourcing partners who are just as committed to ethical practices as we are. We take the time to ensure the people behind the coffee are treated fairly. If you want to learn more, you can dive into our values.

Do you offer support for direct trade relationships with producers?

Yes, we’re always happy to make introductions! If you’re interested in working directly with one of our producers, just send us an email (hello@greencoffeecollective.com) and we’ll gladly help facilitate the connection. For larger volumes, we can also assist with logistics and any complexities involved in sourcing directly from producers.

Do you offer samples or trial batches before committing to larger orders?

Yes, we offer samples for most of our coffees. If you need a larger sample than what’s typically available, we recommend trying one of the smaller quantity options listed on our site. That way, you can test the coffee before committing to a larger order.

Can I arrange a visit to origin or participate in harvest season visits?

We’re working on coordinating trips in the future! In the meantime, if there’s a specific origin you’d like to visit, just get in touch with us, and we’ll do our best to help arrange something.
