OUR COFFEE
We roast all of our coffee in collaboration with Assembly Coffee in Brixton, who source their coffee beans from unique and progressive supply chains, like our producer Mio.
We use a Colombian Brazilian blend across our sites as our Over Under House Blend. It’s produced with farmers in mind, using direct trade so producers have a 250% increase in profitability compared to normal fair trade coffee.
We’ve worked with Assembly since we opened our very first store in Earl’s Court in 2017 and haven’t looked back since. They’re the best in the business and we love working with them.

Our Coffee Producer Mio
Together with Assembly, we also work closely with our producer Mio. Understanding the full supply chain from farm to roasters, to our Over Under customers is extremely important to us.
About Mio
Mió is a coffee farm in Monte Santo de Minas, Brazil, that exports, imports, stores, and sells coffee. Coffee harvested with care by Mió workers.The farm spans a total of 1,589 hectares.
A third of the land is used for the coffee processing and milling facilities, some pasture areas and the plantation of eucalyptus trees, which is home to some lovely bees. The rest of the land is equally divided between the coffee trees and the native forest reserve. With plenty of spring water in the estate, one of Mió’s responsibilities is to not only maintain the water flow but to also improve water quality.
Dedicating the same amount of land to the coffee as to the native forest helps preserve the natural characteristics of the area. The farm is located between Southern Minas Gerais and the High Mogiana region. Two distinct terrains, one bringing a citric acidity, the other
a full body and sweetness to Mió’s coffee.
Traceability
They pride themselves on a 100% traceability guarantee for the entire crop every year. Each stage of the journey, from where the cherries were harvested, which trucks moved them, how and when they were processed, is tracked using satellite imagery. Being a technology-driven farm improves the farmworkers’ quality of life, ensures an abundant harvest and guarantees the highest processing standards for the crop.
Their state-of-the-art processing facilities include: a wet-mill, concrete patios, raised beds, ambient-air drying rotating machines, wood silos, cross-beater hullers and a density separator. The beans are then sorted further according to size and colour using an oscillating screen and optical-electronic system.
