Golden Sheep Coffee

Golden Sheep Coffee is a small-batch roastery based in Gloucestershire, working out of the Stroud area. The name nods to the Cotswold Lion, the local sheep breed whose golden fleece powered the wool and textile trade through the Stroud Valleys for centuries.

It is a deliberate rooting of the brand in the history of the place. The team roasts a rotating range of single origins and blends, including a decaf called Forty Winks, and ships nationwide alongside free local delivery within six miles of Stroud.

Wholesale is a core part of the business. Cafés get fast turnaround, free delivery, no minimum order, no tie-ins, dial-in help, recipe guidance, and barista training, plus equipment support through local servicing partners with loan machines when needed.

The retail side runs on subscriptions and one-off bags through the website, with strong customer reviews. Golden Sheep positions itself as a calm, flexible partner rather than a trend-chasing roaster, with an emphasis on consistency, service, and local roots in the Cotswolds.
