The Journal

Not just a Master Roaster, Gaetano has a way with words that brings love and feeling to everything he says, and does.

Giuseppe, our deputy production manager, believes that taking time to have coffee together is a crucial part of the day. We take five minutes with him to talk about the Roastery.

Have you ever wondered how coffee is roasted? These are, and always have been, our roasting rituals; this is the way we do it.

Join us as we talk to Carlos: One of our Master Roasters, and a keen storyteller.

Marco is our quality assurance technician and not a bad bean gets past him. He?s fastidious and carefully checks every single batch of green coffee that we source, working closely with origins, as well as our baristas in store.

Put your feet up, sit back with your favourite drink and come with us on a journey through the world of coffee.

Did you know that we roast over 38,000 bags of coffee every week ? that?s approximately 5,500 espressos – to make sure every single Caffe Nero has the freshest coffee?

Coffee is changing. It?s no longer simply black or white, and with or without sugar. As appreciation and understanding for what makes a great cup has developed, so has every ingredient ? from the beans, to the brewing, all the way to how it?s served.

We?re creatures of habit when it comes to coffee. We know what we like and how we like it but have you ever wondered where it comes from and how it got into your cup in the first place?
