All of the points mentioned above are all aspects of what has been called the ‘third wave of coffee’ *insert dramatic music here*, however this is simply an umbrella term to summarise the movement towards high quality coffee that is seen as less of a commodity with greater focus on its origins and production methods. It is important in understanding the impact this has on influencing consumers choices on whether to support artisan style coffee shops or whether to stick with well known high street coffee chains who may be less driven in their approach to ensure sustainable practices are adopted. Alongside this, a distinguishing feature of artisan coffee shops is the knowledge the barista’s possess of coffee bean origins and roasting processes, which allows them educate consumers and provide a greater insight into their business, this is the first step in building consumer relationships.

Possessing a passion and interest in environmental considerations is an attribute that each artisan coffee shop should adopt, whilst also being an attribute that should be reflected in the people you choose to hire. Adopting these sustainable practices and understanding the effect it has on those who produce the coffee is vital, this is as a result of stronger feelings of eco-consciousness being present in recent years. Here at Bibium, we support the move towards more sustainable business practices, with our brand of coffee ‘Underdog Coffee’ being fair trade, ethically sourced and produced. So whether you're a coffee aficionado or just looking for a great cup of coffee for your morning brew, we invite you to join us on this journey and experience the difference that artisan coffee can make.The intricacies that differentiate artisan coffee shops are now of increasing importance to consumers, particularly in regards the adoption of a stronger stance on supporting fair-trade products.

At Trading Post Coffee Roasters, we take pride in creating artisan coffee that is both delicious and sustainable.
