Every coffee at this counter is roasted in-house by Finca itself, single origin, graded SCA 80+, with nothing outsourced to another roaster.

Dorchester's outpost of a Somerset-born chain that never sends out a single roast.

The wrong island

I am writing this from Ponta Delgada, where the coffee in front of me was roasted about four streets away. Normally that is the whole story.

Finca roasts its own beans and serves every coffee as a single origin graded SCA 80+, not just bottled up to sell as bags.

The Buttercross

Finca roasts every coffee it serves, so this Dorchester counter is about the coffee itself, not just a convenient stop.
