Are any of your products artificially flavoured?
No. What you see is what you get across the brand. To achieve such wonderful tastes naturally, we’ve perfected sourcing excellent coffee and all things chocolate, craftily roasting it to bring out the unique flavours for our brand.
Do we support sustainability?
As we offer a selection of Fair trade and Organic coffees and chocolate products we are proud to say that our contribution towards sustainability happens through various channels.
By supporting the Fairtrade foundation and the Soil association we join forces with our supply chain to enable everyone in the chain to operate to the highest standards of sustainability and integrity.
We try to do the right thing from knowing all the farms where the beans are grown to supporting farmers reach their desired goals.
For those coffees which do not carry Fair trade and Soil Association certifications we are here to support the farmers to get to a stage where obtaining Fair trade certification and Soil Association certifications are affordable.
A wonderful way our roastery makes an environment friendly valuable contribution towards improving sustainability is by “recycling” / “reusing” the heat generated by coffee roasting machines to warm all office space used by our teams.
We only use environment friendly, 100% recyclable Kraft paper bags for our coffees. The only plastic used is a Freshness valve which allows for the sense of smell to be greatly satisfied once a whiff of the aroma reaches your get an idea of the coffee aroma anytime they want a whiff of coffee as soon as the coffee arrives.
All wrappers for our chocolates, truffle boxes are environment friendly too.
Where necessary, other materials are used in the tiniest amounts (a button to diffuse coffee aroma) and some aluminium foil to preserve product freshness.
We love coffee, all forms of edible chocolate and our sincere desire is for our dear customers to enjoy the fine taste of our products.
Our intent is clear, support the planet and support fellow earthlings to live a healthy happy life.
We hereby invite you to try our purrfect products! Trust us, there is something for everyone.
Fairtrade is a system of certification that aims to ensure a set of standards are met in the production and supply of a product or ingredient.
For farmers and workers, Fairtrade means workers’ rights, safer working conditions and fairer pay.
For shoppers it means high quality, ethically produced products.
Choosing Fairtrade means standing with the farmers who represent the start of any supply chain for fairness and equality, against some of the biggest challenges the world faces. It means farmers have the ability to create a much-needed change, from investing in climate friendly farming techniques to developing women in leadership.
With Fairtrade, we feel that there is an opportunity to change our wonderful world for the better a little bit each day. By purchasing Fair trade products, you as a customer are showing businesses that you support and believe in fair and just trade.

As soon as you place an order, a few things happen:
We ship to all UK addresses.
Mon – Fri
All Smug Cat product packaging is recyclable
We recommend that once the seal is broken, they are consumed in 3 to 4 weeks.
Coffee can degrade when exposed to sunlight. It’s best to keep coffee in a well-sealed, dark glass or ceramic jar away from heat and moisture.
Otherwise, keep it sealed up in its protective bag. Whatever you do, don’t freeze it. The freezer may be a great preserver of many things, but your coffee shouldn’t be one of them. The fluctuating temperature and added moisture affects the oils and cell structure of the coffee and it ends up tasting like your freezer smells, which is not what we’re going for here.
Similarly, coffee easily absorbs the flavour of things around it. Take care in choosing a container to store it in (might want to rethink reusing pickle jar), and be mindful that storing near odorous foods, spices etc, may change the flavour of the coffee.
The best way to store any coffee is in an airtight container and away from sunlight and humidity. We also recommend grinding just enough coffee for the brew you are planning on making.
If you have not received your order in 3 days, please email us at hello@smug-cat.co.uk with an order reference number and we will be happy to update you.
If you’re having trouble using a promo code or gift voucher, there could be a couple reasons for this.
