The story

A featherweight with serious character

Fjødr takes its name from the Old Norse word for feather, and it fits. This is Danelaw's lightest roast, designed to let the natural fruit character of the beans shine through. The blend draws on washed and natural coffees from Africa and Latin America, and the result is something that surprises people who think coffee should only taste of chocolate and smoke.

In the cup you get lemon zest up front, then juicy berries and ripe stone fruit, carried along by a lively acidity that keeps everything bright. There is a tropical fruit sweetness in the finish that lingers nicely. As espresso it is sherbet-like and punchy; as filter it opens up into something sweet and endlessly interesting.

Roasted just a few miles from Porter Hill in Holmfirth, Fjødr has picked up Great Taste Awards in 2022, 2023 and 2024. It is a coffee for curious mornings and anyone who fancies seeing what speciality coffee can really do.

Good questions

Things people ask us in the shop

What does Fjødr taste like?

Bright and fruity. You will get lemon zest, juicy berries and stone fruit, with a tropical sweetness in the finish. It is nothing like a classic dark roast. Think summer fruit rather than chocolate.

Is this coffee too acidic for me?

If you enjoy bright, lively flavours in coffee or wine, you will love it. If you prefer something smooth and mellow, Danelaw's Mjólka or a darker roast might suit you better.

Can I add milk to Fjødr?

You can, but the fruit notes work best black or with just a splash. The brightness tends to get lost under lots of milk. This one is designed to drink lighter.

How many cups does 250g make?

Using around 15g per cup for filter or pour-over, you will get roughly 16–17 cups from the bag. For espresso doses of 18g, expect about 13–14 shots.

How should I store it?

Keep it in an airtight container at room temperature, away from heat and light. Use within a few weeks of opening for the best flavour.
