Adams & Russell
ESTABLISHED IN 1978 Adams + Russell was founded in 1978 on a small industrial estate in Birkenhead where you can still find us now. At roughly the same time our neighbours Cammell Laird became nationalised as British Shipbuilders. The shipping industry is an important relic of Birkenhead’s past and dates back almost 200 years. It is also the main conveyor belt of the coffee trade to this day. Birkenhead once dominated the golden age of shipping and the trade links it forged are a reason we are now in the golden age of coffee. OUR COFFEE Creating consistent, great tasting coffee is our paramount goal as a roaster. The knowledge and passion of our staff culminate in an ever-evolving roasting house, one that has adapted the changes to the coffee industry over the last 40+ years. Recently we have become members of the SCA (Speciality Coffee Association) and all of our quality control parameters are in line with SCA standards. We also offer SCA certified barista courses that aims to develop all areas of brewing coffee. We now roast a variety of over 50 different origins and affiliate with Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance and most recently Women’s Cooperatives such an AMPROCAL. These organisations work closely with the producers to ensure their hard work is credited fairly; without them our coffee wouldn’t be the same.
