Brazil Santos

Flaming Bean Coffee is a small, England-based specialty coffee roastery run by Steve and Karen. Freshness is the whole point — beans roasted to order, bagged up and sent out from their micro operation. A customer testimonial on the site raves about the Yirgacheffe versus Sidamo dilemma, which tells you they carry proper single origins worth debating. They've been at it since at least 2012, drip-feeding new coffees through their online shop and a blog. The personal touch is strong here: you can call Steve or Karen direct to order, and the 'short break' notice suggests a truly small team doing everything themselves. No cafe, just good fresh beans shipped from England.
