About Atkinsons Coffee Roasters
The family run business does far more than just roast coffee. Their knowledge, respect and passion has helped them evolve from a local into a national institution. On my return to the UK after living away for 7 years I came back to a new and exciting coffee scene that had emerged during the time I spent away. Trying to find roasteries wasn’t hard, with the majority of brands having a strong presence on social media and most cities and even big towns having at least one coffee roastery. Atkinsons was a name that I already knew though. A coffee giant based in Lancaster that has been around for 180 years.

Coffee Origin
Don Jorge Monge Garbanzo inherited Las Palomas from his parents and took over management of the farm in 1993. Sadly Jorge recently passed away and the farm is now run by his wife, Flor Mayela Garcia Valverde and their children.
Jorge Monge Garbanzo himself was one of eleven children, all of whom continue to be connected to coffee in some way.
Las Palomas spans six hectares and produces around 250 fanegas (a fenega is approx. 46kg) of coffee annually.
What To Expect
They seem to have hit the sweet spot between tradition and innovation, with their coffee beans appealing to all ages and tastes.
