The West Highland Way is more than a route on a map. It is a rite of passage, a thread that weaves through some of the most breath-taking landscapes in Scotland. Stretching ninety-six miles from Milngavie to Fort William, it draws adventurers from near and far, all seeking the quiet magic of lochs, forests, moorland and mountain shadows. As roasters based just a stone’s throw from the trail, we see its pilgrims daily. We wave them on, tempt them with promises of fresh coffee, and share in the spirit of the journey.
This roast is our homage to that spirit.
We’ve brought together a thoughtful blend of beans from India, Brazil and Ethiopia, each chosen for the depth, warmth and character they bring to the cup. Slow-roasted in small batches here in Killearn, the profile has been refined again and again until it captured exactly what we hoped for: a comforting richness, an indulgent crema, and a full, satisfying mouthfeel that lingers just long enough.
The first sip is like stepping into shelter on a blustery day; warm, reassuring, and deeply welcome. As it unfolds, you’ll find layers of smooth sweetness and gentle complexity, the kind of flavours that coax you to slow down, breathe, and savour the moment. It’s a coffee that wraps around you much like the landscape itself: soft in places, bold in others, and always inviting.
Whether you’re enjoying it on the Way, cupping your hands around a steaming brew as the weather rolls through the glens, or from the comfort of home as your thoughts drift to Scotland’s rugged beauty, this roast is made to accompany you. It’s a tribute to the land, the journey, and to the many who’ve walked those miles, from everyday explorers to icons like Sir Tom Weir, who championed the wonder of our hills long before it became a trail for all.
This is a cup for wanderers, dreamers, and lovers of Scotland.
This is the West Highland Way, roasted with heart.
