Voilà launched in January 2016 with the aim to make the ‘best instant coffee in the world.’ The instant coffee supplier has ‘revolutionised’ the way coffee is made by introducing a ‘unique’ processing technique.
Fabio Ferreira, co-founder of Notes Coffee, said: “We were so excited when we heard about Voilà's instant coffee technology and thrilled to be the first UK coffee roaster to partner with them. We can now offer our delicious, direct trade Colombian coffee - La Cuevita from Nariño, in a super-convenient form - just add hot water! We are very proud of how this honey process coffee is tasting as an instant coffee.
“Our vision is to source coffee ethically - that means it is grown using organic methods, and is financially sustainable for our partner coffee farmers, so they can invest and grow with us. Working with Voilà do deliver speciality coffee in a new format is great news for coffee lovers, coffee farmers and coffee roasters too!”
La Cuevita is a coffee with pear flavours balanced with green apple acidity. It has a green tea aroma with brown sugar sweetness. Currently Notes Coffee serves 1.4 million cups of coffee a year.
Kent Sheridan, Founder of Voilà, commented: “Fabio hunted me down and made sure I tasted some of his recent coffees and I’m so glad I did. The La Cuevita ended up being one of my favourite Colombian coffees this year. As we’ve worked together to make this partnership happen, I’ve really fallen in love with Notes Coffee and their team.
“They’re fun to work with and continue to impress me with the high calibre coffees they bring to the table. You’ll find that this Colombia is exceptionally sweet with vibrant notes of green apple and pear. I can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t fall in love with this coffee.”
