HOW far would you go for a cup of coffee?
The founders of Curious Roo coffee roasters and Artisan coffee shop in Ealing are attempting a world record attempt for the longest coffee delivery.
Edwin and Magda Harrison will be driving a single coffee order from their London roastery to Australia by land and sea – the ultimate coffee run!
Travelling in one van with their three children aged 11, eight and six, they will cross 25 countries over six months, meeting roasters, shop owners and growers.
Their travels will be shared across Instagram and YouTube. You can get a flavour of the challenge on https://youtu.be/TWoqzh3AxAU?si=gnTmbbh9D5nuwMle
“So many of us run on coffee fumes,” said Edwin. “We wanted to invite people to slow down and reflect the patience, craft and origin behind every cup they enjoy.
“What started out as a crazy idea while delivering beans to customers quickly escalated to this full adventure.
“We want to share a real-world understanding, not only with our children but anyone curious about specialty coffee and the communities behind it.”
Edwin and Magda will also be raising money for their UK charity, More than A Dent, which delivers long-term infrastructure projects to communities in need.
Previous initiatives have included clean water access in Ethiopia and recycling centres in Nepal.
