Merly Leon, Washed, Peru

Outpost Coffee is a Nottingham-based specialty roaster with a clear love for the wilder side of coffee. Their lineup leans into experimental processing — think anaerobic naturals, yeast-fermented Ethiopians, and a bold orange co-fermentation from Uganda — all roasted to let those funky notes sing. Single origins are the main event, released on a regular roast schedule, and you can grab them through a monthly subscription (first month half off, which is a nice touch). They also run barista workshops, stock serious brew gear like Fellow and Timemore, and partner with La Marzocco for their espresso setup. Free UK shipping over £25. No cafe mentioned, but their Salisbury Square base in Nottingham is the home of the operation.
