Who we are.
Carrow Coffee Roasters is a boutique roastery based on a family farm in the West of Ireland, perched on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and circled by ancient forests and Neolithic sites.
We constantly strive to source the best sustainably-grown beans from small-scale farmers, and then use our roasting expertise to bring out the best flavour in the cup. From bright washed coffees to funky naturals we are proud to roast distinctive and memorable coffees. We are committed to environmental sustainability and to paying farmers a fair price. Get ready to brew and journey with us!
Our Story...
Our passion for coffee grew in Colombia where we lived for four years travelling extensively throughout the countryside to visit farms and learn about coffee production and the different processing methods.
While there we developed contacts with coffee growers, exporters and industry experts and started roasting coffee on a Huky 500 in the attic of our apartment in Bogota. Andrew became a certified Q Grader, meaning great smelling and tasting skills! Handy when it comes to sourcing the most delicious coffees.
We do care. A lot.
Living in the West of Ireland means connecting with and respecting nature and those values are at the core of who we are as a business.
We are committed to reducing our environmental impact through the adoption of sustainable practices that will reduce our carbon footprint. For example, we use 100% compostable packaging for our retail bags and we supply our wholesale customers in the Sligo area using reusable buckets, which helps to cut down on packaging in the bin!
Our latest coffees
At Carrow we favour light to medium roasts that allow the bean’s intrinsic flavour to shine through. We offer a range of single origin coffees that vary from season to season and are roasted to maximise their natural flavours.
Wholesale
We love to work with like-minded people who are passionate about specialty coffee. Our beans come from small-scale producers in Africa and Latin America, many of whom we know personally after living there for several years.
As well as this direct link, we hunt out coffees that have been grown without artificial fertilizers and pesticides whenever possible. We roast to order to ensure it's fresh. Please get in contact for more details. We'd love to hear from you!
