From bean to cup

Coffee shouldn't just taste good, it should do good. That's why we at Solberg & Hansen do everything we can to ensure that you, as a coffee drinker, get to experience new, outstanding coffee batches year after year.

Direct trade from around the world

It allows for good relationships so that we can help coffee farmers grow coffee of the same high quality, year after year. We believe that sustainable coffee production is the best solution for making the world's best cup of coffee - and that requires direct trade.

GROWN WITH CARE FOR QUALITY, FLAVOUR AND SUSTAINABILITY

Coffee is a berry fruit that is grown all over the world in the subtropical belt. The character of the soil, whether the coffee is grown in sun or shade and how it is processed when the berries are picked, further develops the flavour of the coffee and gives it its personality.

It is therefore important to us that our coffee farmers have access to the necessary equipment, to the development of knowledge and expertise, and to labour. We pay well for the farmer's efforts so that the process can be repeated year after year.

ROASTING COFFEE IS AN ART

At our roastery at Ryen in Oslo, we develop customised roast profiles for all our coffee types. A roast profile specifies how long the raw coffee should be roasted at what temperature, and how and when the heat should be applied during roasting to develop the right flavour and aroma. The precision lies in utilising the potential of each individual coffee bean.

Did you know that we quality control the coffee we roast every single day?

IT SHOULD BE EASY TO BREW GOOD COFFEE

Good coffee beans, preferably freshly ground, fresh water and clean equipment go a long way. We have developed brewing guides for several different methods, so you can easily follow the recipe step by step.
