About us

My father started suffering initial signs of Alzheimer's Disease back in 2016 where his vocabulary and cognitive abilities started to wane. We later discovered that this was the start of Aphasia due to the onset of early Alzheimers. He eventually became non-verbal making his suffering even more frustrating for both himself and family around him - we could never be sure just how far his disease had progressed and getting any sign of pain or a sense of what day, month, or year he thought it was, was near impossible.

I'd been wanting to start an online coffee business for a while and had been in the process of starting up the business when my father's Alzheimers Disease started to deteriorate faster than we had expected. I had to pause the project to ensure his well-being was maintained as his disease worsened. I lost my father to Alzheimer's Disease on 10th December 2022.

Throughout his suffering, I have made numerous contributions to the Alzheimer's Society, with his funeral service heavily focussed on donations for the charity.

With his passing I now have a fresh focus on my online business. It seemed logical to me to merge the two things together and commemorate my father through a steady stream of donations so others can benefit from the charities work.

I have decided to choose a specific coffee blend or single origin coffee every month, that if purchased, will see 100% of any profit I make on that particular blend donated to the Alzheimer's Society.
