Our Story

Here at Maude, we’re a small team, with big passion for great coffee. Nestled under the railway lines in Leeds, we’ve been producing high-quality specialty coffee for over 10 years, working closely with our partners to ensure traceable, socially responsible supply chains.

Sourcing

Its important to us to build long-term relationships with the network of producers and importers that we know and trust. They share our commitment to supporting the farmers and communities they source from, and provide us with honesty and traceability, ensuring fair prices and contributing to a better life for everyone. 


We’re committed to making sure our buying practices are fair and transparent, so you (and us!) can feel good knowing that your delicious coffee is also helping to support a better system.  

Process

Our commitment to quality extends into our roasting process. Roasting on a Probat P-12, we roast in small batches to ensure each coffee is treated with the utmost attention to detail. 


Our roasts aim to bring out all the natural flavour and sweetness inherent in the coffee, highlighting the uniqueness of flavour and character of each one.

Packaging

Our coffees stay fresh for up to three years once sealed, thanks to our special gas-flushing packaging. 


We replace the oxygen with argon gas, which pretty much stops the coffee from aging and keeps all that delicious flavor locked in. 


Our bags are produced in a carbon offset processing process and are fully recyclable in the UK – just pop them in with your soft plastics at your local supermarket. 

Zero waste coffee supply

In an effort to minimise and reduce waste, we have begun a reusable tub initiative with some of our local partners, which enables us to fulfil wholesale orders in refillable tubs.

No need for packaging, local baristas can just fill the hopper straight from the tub, then simply return the empties back to us to refill again.
