PureGusto SUBLIMA Triple Certified Coffee Beans
Fairtrade, Organic and Rainforest Alliance Certified
Apple | Cherry | Orange | Peach | Rich & Sophisticated
Exceptional coffee should taste remarkable. For many customers, how that coffee is sourced matters too.
PureGusto SUBLIMA brings both together.
Developed following two years of cupping and tasting, SUBLIMA is a premium 100% Arabica, single origin coffee combining sophisticated flavour with three recognised certifications at origin: Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance coffee from Organic Origin
Grown at approximately 1,450 to 1,600 metres above sea level, carefully washed and convection roasted here in the UK, SUBLIMA produces a wonderfully aromatic cup with notes of apple, cherry, orange and peach, complemented by a deeper, developed coffee character and an impressive long-lasting crema.
The result is a coffee that delivers far more than its sustainability credentials.
SUBLIMA is first and foremost exceptional coffee. The triple certification makes it even more compelling.
Triple Certified Coffee
SUBLIMA has been selected for businesses and coffee drinkers who want premium coffee with meaningful sourcing credentials.
The coffee carries three important certifications at origin:
Fairtrade
Providing recognised standards around the production and trading of coffee.
Organic
Produced using coffee from certified organic origins.
Rainforest Alliance
Supporting recognised standards relating to more sustainable agriculture.
Together, these credentials make SUBLIMA particularly attractive to cafes, workplaces, hotels and hospitality businesses where responsible sourcing is an important part of the purchasing decision.
But certification alone was never enough for us.
The coffee still had to be exceptional in the cup.

100% Arabica Catuai Coffee
SUBLIMA is produced from 100% Arabica Catuai coffee.
Catuai is a well-established Arabica varietal capable of producing wonderfully balanced coffees when grown and processed with care.
For SUBLIMA, its fruit characteristics provide an excellent foundation for the cup, allowing apple, cherry, citrus and peach notes to develop alongside the richer characteristics created during roasting.
The result has enough complexity for the speciality coffee drinker while remaining accessible enough to become an everyday house coffee.
High-Altitude Grown
SUBLIMA is cultivated at approximately 1,450 to 1,600 metres above sea level.
At higher elevations, cooler growing conditions allow coffee cherries to mature more gradually. This slower development helps create the sweetness and complexity we look for when selecting premium green coffee.
Once harvested, the beans undergo a washed process, helping produce a cleaner cup and allowing the natural fruit characteristics of the Catuai coffee to remain clearly defined.
Rich Espresso with an Exceptional Crema
SUBLIMA makes an impressive espresso.
Its substantial body creates plenty of presence in the cup while its long, thick crema gives the finished espresso an immediately attractive appearance.
Underneath that crema is a coffee with considerably more complexity than a conventional dark espresso blend.
The developed coffee character provides richness, while the apple, cherry, orange and peach characteristics add sweetness and interest.
It is a particularly appealing choice for customers who want a stronger, richer espresso without sacrificing Arabica quality or origin character.
Beautiful Through Milk
SUBLIMA has enough body to retain its identity when combined with steamed milk.
Its fruit-led sweetness becomes softer and rounder, while the deeper coffee character provides the structure needed for larger milk-based drinks.
It performs beautifully as a:
- Flat White
- Cappuccino
- Cafe Latte
- Cortado
- Macchiato
- Mocha
For professional operators, this makes SUBLIMA much more than a specialist ethical coffee.
It is a genuinely versatile house coffee capable of performing across an entire menu.
Excellent Black
Drink SUBLIMA without milk and its fruit characteristics become more prominent.
As an Americano, the espresso opens to reveal more of its apple, cherry and orange notes, while the washed processing contributes to a cleaner, more defined cup.
It is also suitable for a wide range of coffee equipment and preparation methods, making it a flexible option for both professional and home coffee drinkers.
Convection Roasted in the UK
SUBLIMA is convection roasted here in the UK using smooth, controlled streams of hot air.
This roasting method allows heat to circulate evenly around the coffee beans, helping us develop the richer characteristics required for espresso while reducing the risk of the scorching and uneven roast development associated with excessive direct surface heat.
For SUBLIMA, the objective is to preserve its natural fruit sweetness while developing enough body and depth to create a genuinely satisfying commercial coffee.
Richness without sacrificing complexity.
An Outstanding Ethical House Coffee
For professional operators, SUBLIMA offers an unusually complete proposition.
It has the premium flavour required from a serious house coffee, the body and crema required for espresso, the versatility needed for milk-based drinks and three recognised sourcing credentials.
That makes it particularly suitable for businesses where customers increasingly want to know more about the coffee they are drinking.
Rather than offering an ethical coffee purely because of its certification, SUBLIMA allows you to offer something much stronger:
A premium 100% Arabica coffee that also happens to be Fairtrade, Organic and Rainforest Alliance certified.

Our Recommended Serve
SUBLIMA Flat White
Extract SUBLIMA as a rich double espresso before combining with finely textured steamed milk.
The shorter milk ratio allows the coffee's rich body and fruit sweetness to remain clearly present, while the milk softens its deeper characteristics and produces a beautifully rounded cup.
Expect a smooth, substantial flat white with enough sweetness and complexity to make every sip interesting.
For those who prefer coffee black, try SUBLIMA as an Americano to allow more of its apple, cherry and citrus character to emerge.
