About Kiss the Hippo
Kiss the Hippo roasts with a notably fruit-forward sensibility, drawing out red berries, stone fruits, and tropical notes across their range with particular sophistication. Their palette extends from approachable chocolate-based blends to complex single origins where floral and fermented characteristics add nuance—peach and jasmine appear with notable frequency, alongside blackcurrant and plum in more adventurous lots. This is coffee pitched toward those seeking brightness and flavour clarity rather than heavy body, with processing methods and origin carefully chosen to emphasise acidity and aromatic complexity.
