Purple, Brown or Green: Which Coffee Colour Are You?

At THREE, we believe that every coffee has a colour personality – a unique set of taste characteristics that offer a distinct sensory experience. We've categorised our coffees into three colour groups to help you easily discover and find coffees that you will like.

The first colour embodies bold, adventurous flavours designed for the daring palate. 

The second colour is rich and robust, offering a classic, comforting taste for traditional coffee lovers. 

The third colour is a blend of fresh and vibrant notes, perfect for those seeking a refreshing twist.
