Proper Coffee

Welcome Proper Coffee.

Part of the Tamar Fresh family where every sip tells a story

Proper Coffee is the artisan coffee brand proudly rooted in the Tamar Fresh family, a trusted, family-run business based in Saltash, Cornwall. With over 30 years of experience supplying the South West with the finest fresh produce, Tamar Fresh has built a reputation for quality, reliability, and strong local relationships.

Carrying that legacy forward, Proper Coffee was born from the same values: quality, freshness, and a passion for honest, well-crafted products. We source premium, ethically-grown coffee beans from around the world and roast them in small batches to capture their unique flavor and character.

From smooth single-origins to rich, bold blends, Proper Coffee fuels cafés, restaurants, workplaces, and homes throughout the South West and beyond. Every cup reflects the care, craft, and community spirit that defines the Tamar Fresh family.

Freshly Roasted. Ethically Sourced. Boldly Brewed. Proudly from Saltash, Cornwall.

Proper Eco

Our Decaf is crafted from 100% Arabica beans sourced
from Central America. Naturally decaffeinated using the
Mountain Water process, it delivers smooth tasting notes
of dark chocolate, stone fruit, and red apple.

Gently roasted to a medium profile to preserve
sweetness and balance, it’s then packed in 1kg bags with
coated foil and a freshness valve to lock in flavour and
aroma. Enjoy a rich, creamy coffee experience — without
the caffeine.

Our #1 Blend is crafted from a carefully balanced mix of
high-quality Arabica and Robusta beans. With a smooth
body and rich tasting notes of cocoa, liquorice, and spice,
this blend is perfect enjoyed black or paired with milk.

Roasted to a dark profile for depth and character, it’s
then freshly packed in 1kg bags with coated foil and a
freshness valve to lock in aroma and flavour — so every
cup tastes just as good as the day it was roasted.

Our #2 Blend is made using speciality grade Arabica
beans sourced from across the globe. This unique
combination creates a crowd-pleasing coffee with
delicious tasting notes of milk chocolate, apple, and a
hint of lemon zest.

Roasted to a medium-dark profile for depth and balance,
#2 Blend is freshly packed in 1kg bags with coated foil
and a freshness valve to lock in aroma and flavour —
ensuring every cup is full of character.

Our #3 Blend combines two carefully selected coffee
origins to create smooth flavour notes of caramel and
dark chocolate.

Made with 100% Arabica beans and Fairtrade certified,
every purchase helps support communities at origin while
delivering exceptional quality in every cup.
Roasted to a medium-dark profile for balance and richness,
#3 Blend is freshly packed in 1kg bags with coated foil and
