Salt and Light Blend is slightly lighter in body and a bit LESS sweet compared to Cracked Bean Blend! It still works well across all brew methods, with or without milk. This is very enjoyable as a black pour over, to appreciate the full breadth of flavour notes it contains.
The components of the blend will change seasonally 2 to 3 times across the year but always hit the same flavour notes that make it a distinctive choice.
You might be interested to know the reason behind the choice of name of this blend:
Historically Sunderland as a port grew initially due to it's trading in salt; this pre-dated its trade in coal, and then shipbuilding.
As some of you may know, Sunderland's football stadium is called the Stadium of Light.
And finally, our founding Director, Sam has a Christian faith which spurred her to set up the social enterprise business, to help people move towards financial independence, as Christians are called to be salt and light in their community.
