Our Signature Blend

We pride ourselves on our award winning signature blend. We have carefully hand selected eight coffee beans from the South American, Central American and African regions to produce a premium blend that is well balanced, full bodied, rich and smooth, with a delicate hint of nuttiness.

Our signature difference is pre-blending the beans before roasting, offering you a perfect cup of coffee with a delicious smooth aftertaste every time. Perfect for both espresso and milk drinkers, our signature blend is the drive behind our success, and we are proud to offer you a premium and quality coffee, each and every time.

Still can’t get enough? Why not ask your local barista about our 1kg takeaway bags. Available to purchase and enjoy at home, anytime!
