Kope began behind the counter at Wild Thyme Cafe. We wanted a cleaner, smoother coffee for the cafe, so we started roasting it ourselves. Every batch is air roasted in North Devon and shared through a small circle of local stockists.
Find Kope LocallyThe Roast
Air roasting keeps the beans moving through clean, even heat. For us, that means brighter character, less bitterness, and a cup that still tastes good when the morning gets noisy.
We roast carefully and often, rather than chasing scale. Each batch has to taste right before it leaves us.
Chocolatey, bright, mellow, fruit-led: every coffee earns its place because it brings something distinct to the cup.
Our compostable bags are part of a quieter promise: better coffee without unnecessary fuss around it.

Exclusive island stockistBorn in the cafe
Kope started with a practical problem: we wanted a house coffee that felt as considered as the food at Wild Thyme Cafe. After enough almost-right cups, we decided to roast our own.
That cafe-first beginning still shapes the way we work. We choose coffees that people want to come back to, not coffees that only sound impressive on a label.
A few words from customers, cafe regulars and local coffee drinkers.
