Your guide to Caffè Essenziali

  • What are coffee staples, and why are they important?

    Our coffee staples are the beans we always have in stock. They’re selected for their reliability and consistency, making them a great choice for your business. These coffees are cost-effective, versatile, and ideal for espresso offerings. Plus, they’re available year-round, so you don’t have to worry about running out. With these staples, you can always deliver the quality your customers expect.

  • Why are these coffees available year-round?

    It all comes down to where they’re grown and how we source them.

    • Ugandan coffee benefits from two harvests a year. Uganda’s location on the equator creates two distinct growing seasons, so we can offer fresh beans throughout the year. This is made possible through our close relationship with Omwani, our trusted sourcing partner.
    • Colombian coffee is another year-round option. Colombia’s unique climate gives it a “bimodal” harvest—main crops from October to December and a smaller “mitaca” harvest from April to June. This allows us to stock fresh beans regularly, ensuring you get the best flavour and quality every time.

    On top of this, we plan ahead and order larger stocks of these coffees to ensure they’re always available when you need them.

  • Why aren’t all coffees available year-round?

    Some coffees are seasonal due to where and how they’re grown. Limited harvest periods, small crop sizes, or higher sourcing costs can make them harder to keep in stock. Additionally, certain coffees may not align with market demand, so it’s not always practical to offer them year-round. We focus on providing the most reliable and in-demand options to keep your business running smoothly.

  • What’s the benefit of building a house espresso offering?

    Having a house espresso isn’t just about having a signature coffee—it’s about creating a foundation for your business. Here’s why it’s worth considering:

    • Cost-effective: A carefully chosen espresso blend can lower your overall coffee costs without compromising quality.
    • Wide appeal: A well-rounded espresso blend caters to a broad range of customer tastes, from those who love a creamy flat white to those who prefer a strong, bold espresso shot.
    • Consistency: Customers value reliability. When they know they can count on your espresso tasting great every time, they’ll keep coming back.

    It also gives your business a clear identity. A house espresso becomes part of your story—a way to stand out while offering something dependable.

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.

What is your process for ensuring consistency between lots or harvests?

We work closely with our sourcing partners to make sure we’re always offering top-quality coffee. Most of the partners you’ll find on our site have years of experience in their regions, and they use that expertise to access the best coffees available each season. Their deep relationships with producers help maintain consistency in both quality and supply.

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.

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.

How does Green Coffee Collective support my business growth?

Our vision is to make amazing coffee accessible to roasters of all sizes. We provide all the marketing materials and storytelling you need to showcase the origins of our coffees. If there’s anything missing that’s holding you back from making a purchase, just let us know! We’re always looking for ways to improve and make our products and information even more transparent. Many roasters have successfully scaled their offerings with our support, and we’re here to help you do the same.

What’s your pricing structure, and are there discounts or benefits for bulk purchases?

Our pricing is straightforward. For quantities smaller than 60kg, we add a small premium to cover warehousing, picking, packaging, handling, and shipping—this helps make smaller orders possible. For full sacks, we take a commission from our sourcing partners, so the price you pay with us is the same as if you purchased directly from them. Discounts for larger volumes are listed on our site, and we calculate these based on consultations with producers and sourcing partners, reflecting the benefits of buying in bulk and committing to ongoing orders.
