Our Story

I'm Alex and what started in 2014 with a single coffee van (and a dream) has now become West Berkshire Roastery - complete with two coffee roasters and a Labrador who thinks he’s the CEO.

Along the way, I uncovered some truths: coffee is the planet’s most sprayed crop. Pesticides? Chemicals? Absolutely everywhere. So, I ditched the usual beans and went on a quest for the good stuff: organically farmed, direct-traded coffees that don’t come with a side of pesticides.

With a bit of Berkshire flair and caffeine-fuelled creativity, I’m here to bring you one of the finest (and cleanest) coffee experiences you’ll ever sip. I hope you’ll agree. It’s coffee refreshingly drama free.

Organic Certification

Our Roastery Collection consisting of Signature Gold, Mocha Italiano & Black Gold is fully independently lab tested for artificial pesticides, moulds and mycotoxins.

Are you seeking the rich, aromatic pleasure of coffee without the jittery excess of caffeine? Our Low Caffeine Coffee Beans offer the perfect solution, ensuring you embrace the day with a smooth, serene energy.

Why Choose Our Low Caffeine Coffee Beans?

  • 💤 Improved Sleep: Enjoy your favorite beverage later in the day without compromising your night’s rest. Our beans are designed for those who value their sleep as much as their coffee.
  • 🌿 Natural Processing: Sourced from the finest, sustainably grown coffee plants, our beans undergo a natural process to reduce caffeine, preserving the full-bodied flavour without the usual kick.
  • 👫 Perfect for Everyone: Whether you’re a busy professional, a health-conscious individual, or someone looking to cut down on caffeine without giving up on coffee, our beans are your ideal match.
  • 🍂 Rich Flavour, Less Caffeine: Savour the deep, enriching taste of coffee in every sip. Our special selection offers a harmonious balance between richness and a low caffeine content.
  • 🌱 Gentle on the Tummy: Our low-acid beans mean you can savour coffee without the cringe of stomach discomfort.

Our difference? We source directly from the farmers, and not third party importers, so you won't find better tasting, freshly roasted decaf coffee at a better price or we'll refund the difference! 

What’s all the fuss about?

Sourced from the very best corners of deepest, darkest Peru, this coffee is traditionally farmed by hand and produced without the use of pesticides or chemicals. 

Situated high in the mountains amongst the most beautiful flora and fauna of the Valley, the coffee beans are firstly fed and washed by pure spring waters and then harvested by the local indigenous Quechua and 'Aymara' speaking families. 

This is globally one of the most difficult and logistically challenging of origins, with a hair raising 4 day journey that climbs to almost 5000m to cross the mighty Andes to get this coffee to port - a journey worth every step in our opinion.

These proud families have worked the area for generations in harmony with the land. At the beginning of each season all farmers make an annual ceremony to the earth  'Pachamama'  to ask for blessings for the coming season.

Origin: Satipo, Peru

Varietal: Bourbon

Processing: Washed &  Naturally processed co2 Decaf

Did you know?

Decaf coffee is still packed with antioxidants, magnesium, potassium, and niacin. Only the caffeine molecule is extracted during the decaffeination process. 

How we remove the caffeine from our coffee: 

  1. The green coffee beans are soaked/cleaned in water, as the beans expand the pores open up and the caffeine becomes mobile.
  2. Pressured Carbon Dioxide is introduced, this combined with the present water creates sparkling water. The CO2 acts like a magnet to the caffeine molecules, extracting it from the beans.
  3. The water is then drained into an evaporator which precipitates the caffeine rich carbon dioxide out of the water.
  4. This cycle is repeated until the caffeine level is low enough to be classified as decaf.
  5. The decaffeinated coffee is then gently dried until it reaches its original moisture content and is then ready for roasting.

Roasting Perfection

AMAZING

I've been ordering from WB Roast for the last 6 or so months. I won't buy coffee anywhere else. The low acidity, high taste, chemical free coffee ticks every box I could ever ask for. Nobody else offers this... trust me, I've looked!

Surprisingly tasty

Always hated decaf but this tastes like real coffee. Enjoy all day and not have to worry about over-caffienating.
