Cornwall-based speciality coffee roaster Origin Coffee launched a new Cold Brew Espresso Concentrate — an espresso-strength, ready-to-serve speciality coffee concentrate designed to be diluted with water or milk for hot or iced coffee in seconds, or used as a base for creative serves like espresso tonics, coffee cocktails, and desserts.

The product has been 18 months in development and is the first SKU produced at Origin's new Cold Brew Brewery in Cornwall — an in-house production facility built specifically for cold brew, signalling the brand's intent to treat the format as more than a single-product experiment.

One 500ml pouch costs £8.00 as a one-off purchase or £6.40 (20% off) on subscription.

How the product works

The concentrate is made using industry-leading technology for precise grinding, careful extraction, and gentle cold brewing. The aim is to preserve the qualities Origin's hot speciality coffee is known for — balance, clarity, natural sweetness, and the absence of bitterness — in a format that's been historically challenging to scale at speciality quality.

It's positioned as a versatile pantry product that can be mixed with water or milk for hot or iced coffee in seconds, used as a base for espresso tonics, espresso martinis, or other coffee cocktails, or folded into desserts.


The Cold Brew Espresso Concentrate is available now via origincoffee.co.uk.
