There’s no getting away from it, to make a truly satisfying drink, the sort that people will return to time and time again, you simply have to start with excellent ingredients.

So we take the same attitude whatever the ingredients - we look for the best, at the best possible price, to give you the best possible results.

And that means using the best tea bags for bulk catering just as much as choosing the finest beans to create a single cup of espresso.

In fact, it’s a matter of pride that we would never supply anything that we wouldn’t be happy to drink ourselves – or serve to our guests. True, that means looking a little harder, travelling a little further and working a lot harder to get the right deal. But it does mean that when our customers serve Edgcumbes’ ingredients, they can do so with the absolute confidence that they’re serving the best.
