Welcome to Café Madre — a London-based coffee business with bold values and even bolder flavour.
We source specialty-grade coffee grown, harvested, and processed by women — because although women make up the majority of the global coffee workforce, they receive far less recognition, ownership, and income. We think it’s time for that to change.

​

Our Coffee

​Our first two coffees, launching in April 2025, come from exceptional women's collectives in Nicaragua and Bolivia. These coffees are carefully selected for their quality - with both ranking in the top 2% of coffees worldwide based on SCAA scoring -  and their contribution to their communities. More information about each coffee is available on the product pages, accessed through "Shop Coffee" in our menu.

​

Our Model​

Café Madre isn’t a charity or a social enterprise. We're a business with a passion for delivering coffee that does good, and tastes great. We pay a premium price for quality coffee, building direct relationships with producers and prioritising transparency in every step of the journey. You’ll find detailed stories, tasting notes, and origin info with every order.

​​

Why "Café Madre"?

The name roughly translates to "Mother Coffee" — and in many coffee-growing regions, women are the backbones of both farms and families. 

​

Our Mission

​At Café Madre, our mission is to offer specialty coffee that tastes great, is traceable, and true to our values. We want to connect conscious coffee lovers with the source of their brews, and understand the impact their choices can have; and to create space at the table — or coffee counter — for better ways of doing business.​
