Sourcing
We buy carefully selected green coffees in smaller lots, through trusted importers we have worked with for years.
Ten years at the drum
COFFEE IS A PLACE FIRST.
Ten years of experience, carefully built sourcing relationships and an endless curiosity about coffee. That is what Bagira Coffee is built on. We choose and roast coffees that show the character of their origin, careful processing and our own professional approach alike.

How it started
FROM GETTING TO KNOW COFFEE TO ROASTING IT
Bagira Coffee was founded in 2015 by Ádám Török and Tibor Tamási, building on the professional and hospitality background of Cirkusz Café in Budapest. Ádám’s experience as a barista and Hungarian latte art champion, and his curiosity about coffee quality, led naturally to roasting their own.
From the start, Cirkusz Café made it possible to put what we learned at the roaster to use in everyday hospitality. The roastery that began here with a handful of partners has grown into an independent specialty coffee brand, with its own roastery in Nagytarcsa, a webshop and a café on Dob utca.
Behind the growth has always been the same approach: curiosity about coffee, attention to detail and a steady pursuit of consistent quality.
From cherry to bag
HOW WE WORK
Roasting
Every coffee gets its own roast profile, which we keep developing through regular cupping and fine-tuning. We also check each newly opened sack to keep the quality consistent.
Packing
We pack our coffees to order, with the actual roast date on every bag.
Why nature?
EVERY ORIGIN HAS A WORLD OF ITS OWN
Bagira is named after the black panther, so nature and wildlife have been part of the brand from the very beginning. The illustrations on our bags draw on the wildlife and landscape typical of each growing region.
The aim is for each coffee to recall something of the faraway world it comes from — not only in taste but in look. A moment’s journey to where the coffee began.
