Obadiah Coffee

Edinburgh

Scotland

Obadiah is a specialty roastery based in Edinburgh, founded in 2017. The business is built around a defined roasting philosophy: light-touch roasting designed to express the natural character of each lot, with clarity and layered complexity as the primary quality markers. They run a dedicated cupping room for quality control and recommend a minimum 21-day resting period after roast before brewing, which is a notably longer rest than most roasters suggest. Their sourcing covers both established and emerging coffee-growing regions, and they work with green suppliers who specialise in specific origins. Recent offerings have included Chinese coffees from Yunnan's Tian Cai farm and Rwandan naturals, which signals a willingness to go beyond the standard set of origins. They sell online with subscriptions, a seasonal subscription programme and curated gift packs, and supply wholesale accounts.
