Big Dog Coffee Company is a specialty coffee roastery based in the Caerphilly Borough of South Wales. The team roasts on a Diedrich IR-12 drum roaster at a site that combines the roastery with quality control, offices, training areas and display space, and visitors are invited to come and see the process.

Sourcing runs through long-term relationships with reputable green coffee importers rather than a direct trade model, with a current single origin range covering Indonesia, Kenya, Honduras, Rwanda, Tanzania, Colombia, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Ethiopia. The lineup sits across washed, natural and anaerobic processes, alongside two house blends and a sugarcane process Colombia decaf.

The business runs an online shop, subscriptions, wholesale, barista training and events, with a stated focus on making specialty coffee approachable rather than exclusive.
