FOR THE COFFEE

QUO Coffee from Sweden presents 01*west, a full-bodied espresso blend with a classic, balanced profile and a creamy dark chocolate character.

Staying true to their “West Coast coffee” philosophy, QUO focuses on solidarity with both producers and customers. This blend is designed to appeal to sustainability-conscious coffee drinkers who still prefer a familiar flavour profile. By opting for a slightly more developed roast, QUO creates an approachable yet fully traceable blend that bridges the gap between comfort and ethics.

The 01*west espresso also plays a strategic role in QUO’s sourcing. As a high-volume product, it allows them to purchase larger lots from trusted producers, utilise coffee screen sizes that might otherwise be sold into commercial markets, and initiate new direct relationships with single farmers in origins that are often hard to access due to intermediaries or minimum volume requirements.

Blend composition:
• 40% Fazenda Santa Rita, Mogiana, Brazil – Natural Arara
• 40% Bob-o-link, São Paulo, Brazil – Natural Yellow Bourbon (sourced through FAF)
• 20% Gushe Buna, Ephrem Mulugeta, Kaffa, Ethiopia – Natural 74112, 74110
