About us
Grains de Bastide has been roasting in Aix since 2016, in a forty square metre workshop at the back of the shop. One drum roaster, twelve kilo batches, and one rule that does not move: nothing reaches the shelf more than ten days after roasting.
Coffees are bought as identified lots, farm by farm, from three importers who publish the price paid to the grower. Every bag carries the farm name, the altitude, the variety and the roast date. When a lot runs out it leaves the list: it is not quietly replaced by a neighbouring coffee under the same name.
We grind in front of you, set for your method: cafetière, filter, moka pot or espresso. You can taste before you buy, and we would rather you did.
