Black Heather Solasta Takes Centre Stage at the Edinburgh Fringe

Caffia’s distinctly rich and characterful Scottish coffee is being served across multiple Underbelly outlets during Edinburgh’s world-famous festival season.

Edinburgh is transformed every August as performers, comedians, musicians and visitors from around the world fill the city for its famous festival season.

At the heart of the action is Underbelly, one of the UK’s leading producers of live entertainment and a major presence at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Across its vibrant venues, audiences can enjoy an incredible programme of shows alongside food, drinks and the unmistakable festival atmosphere.

Caffia is delighted to be working with Underbelly throughout the summer, with our popular Black Heather Solasta coffee being served across multiple outlets during the festival.

At the heart of the Fringe

Underbelly’s colourful venues bring together live entertainment, hospitality and the unique energy that makes August in Edinburgh unlike anywhere else.

Coffee for the Edinburgh Fringe crowds

With thousands of visitors exploring Edinburgh each day, great coffee is an essential part of the festival experience. Whether it is an early start, an afternoon break between performances or an evening pick-me-up, Solasta offers festivalgoers a rich and characterful cup of coffee.

Part of Caffia’s award-winning Black Heather range, Solasta is a bold blend of Rainforest Alliance-certified Arabica and Robusta coffees. It has a full-bodied flavour with notes of dark chocolate, tobacco and blackcurrant, making it particularly well suited to busy hospitality environments.

Distinctive coffee with a Scottish identity

The Black Heather range celebrates its strong Scottish identity while carrying an important environmental message.

Sales from the range help support the Scottish Wildlife Trust and its work to protect and restore Scotland’s precious peatland habitats. These landscapes play a vital role in supporting wildlife, storing carbon and preserving Scotland’s natural heritage.

This combination of distinctive coffee, Scottish character and a commitment to sustainability makes Black Heather Solasta a fitting choice for one of Scotland’s biggest cultural celebrations.

Supporting Underbelly during a busy summer

Caffia supplies coffee, commercial coffee machines and ongoing support to hospitality businesses throughout the UK. We are proud to help Underbelly serve consistently great coffee across its outlets during one of the busiest and most exciting periods in Edinburgh’s calendar.

It has been fantastic to see Solasta being enjoyed in the heart of the festival, surrounded by the performers, venues and curious crowds that make August in Edinburgh unlike anywhere else.
