Our Story – Coffee That Connects Us

Ethnico Coffee was born from a simple belief: coffee should be an experience, not just a caffeine fix.

Our founder, Carlos, and his wife, Claire, first met over coffee, sparking not just a relationship but a passion for great brewing. Having lived in Colombia and Guatemala, they saw firsthand the dedication behind every bean and knew coffee deserved more respect than instant granules or overpriced takeaway cups.

We created Ethnico to bring you fresh, single-origin coffee from trusted farms in Guatemala and Colombia—delivering rich, high-altitude flavours straight to your home. No pods, no shortcuts—just beautifully roasted coffee that respects the craft, the people behind it, and the planet.

Because great coffee isn’t just about taste—it’s about slowing down, embracing the ritual, and making a conscious choice.

Brew better. Live better.

Whole Bean Coffee, Nothing Else

  • Freshness Matters – Pre-ground coffee loses its flavor, aroma, and complexity almost immediately.
  • Oxygen Is the Enemy – Exposure to air breaks down delicate oils and natural compounds, resulting in a flat, stale brew.
  • Whole Beans = Maximum Flavor – Grinding fresh preserves the full depth of taste, just as coffee was meant to be enjoyed.
  • A Little Effort, Big Reward – Freshly ground coffee takes minimal effort but delivers a noticeably superior experience.
  • Once You Try It, You’ll Never Go Back – The difference is undeniable—whole bean coffee is simply better.

Find Your Perfect Coffee

Choosing between our Colombian and Guatemalan single-origin coffees depends on your personal taste preferences. Here's a guide to help you select the perfect brew:

Quick Tips

  • Prefer a bold, chocolatey taste? Opt for Guatemalan.
  • Enjoy a smooth, balanced flavour? Choose Colombian.
  • Drink your coffee black? Guatemalan offers a richer profile, while Colombian provides a bright, clean finish.
  • Add milk or cream? Colombian's natural sweetness shines, whereas Guatemalan retains its robust character. Explore both to discover which origin resonates with your palate. Each offers a unique journey into the world of exceptional coffee.
