About Bird & Wild
For every bag of Bird & Wild sold, you are helping the RSPB Charity, Soil Association & the Fairtrade Foundation.
Working in partnership with the RSPB, 6% of sales is donated to the RSPB to help give nature a home, as well as being Certified Fairtrade and Organic.
Bird & Wild only roasts seasonal coffee certified as Bird Friendly & Shade-Grown by the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Centre & contributes to support their research and conservation programs.
Our coffees are naturally grown under the rainforest canopy, a haven for birds and other wildlife & ideal conditions for nurturing deliciously different beans with a taste of the wild.
In the shade of tropical highland agroforestry systems, where the coffee shrubs grow beneath a diverse canopy of shade trees, coffee is allowed to develop complex, distinctive and smooth flavours.
Bird Friendly Certified coffees are grown on forest farms that protect the diverse tree canopy, providing a haven to threatened migratory birds, insects and other wildlife.
About the Swiss Water Decaf Process
The Swiss Water Process is environmentally friendly, chemical-free, 99.9% caffeine-free, whilst having great taste.
At Swiss Water, they use water from the coast mountains of British Columbia to gently remove the caffeine until the coffee beans are 99.9% caffeine-free, while maintaining the bean's distinctive origin and flavour characteristics.
If the decaf you’re consuming has the Swiss Water logo on it, you can be sure that no chemicals were used to remove the caffeine from the coffee.
Cupping Notes
A seasonally sourced blend of South & Central American beans, medium roasted to produce a smooth and versatile coffee with dark chocolate tones, balanced acidity and bright floral aromas. 100% Organic Arabica Coffee. Swiss Water Process Decaffeinated Coffee.
Strength 3.
How much have we donated to the RSPB so far?
Over £20,000 donated by Bird & Wild to the RSPB since 2017.
Note: This decaffeinated coffee is Fairtrade, Organic and Swiss Water Decaf Process, but it is not certified Shade Grown or Bird Friendly. That's because it doesn't exist yet and hope that, as we grow, we will have the kind of demand to request the Swiss Water Decaf people to decaf a batch for us (the quantities are enormous to decaffeinate coffee!)

Coffee Preparation
Use fresh water for boiling. Once boiled, let the kettle cool for a few minutes, since boiling water burns the coffee. It is always best to put too much coffee in than too little. You can always dilute the coffee if it is too strong. A rough guide is 12 grams of coffee for every 180ml of water.
Coffee Storage
Keep your coffee in an airtight container in a cool, dark, dry place. It is that simple. Preferably use within 3 weeks.
