We’re not usually the kind to be political
But when it comes to keeping it real,
you might as well have a laugh.

POV: you’ve just stumbled out of bed to realise you’ve run out of coffee... again. ugh. Or, you could get a coffee subscription and never run out again, without even having to run to the shops.

May as well treat yourself to the good stuff while you’re at it. Batch roasted coffee from a family run small new zealand business at reasonable prices? Yeah that’s us.

Until the end of September you can get 10% off your first order on coffee subscriptions with code SUBSTEN... better still, you cand double down and use a second code for discounted shipping on your every order with FORSUBS.

Keen? Link in bio to sort your life out, caffeine-wise anyway.

Take the hassle out of your coffee supply! Pay-as-you-go or opt for a pre-paid subscription as a gift. We’ve got options for every taste and budget. Coffee Subscriptions are sent out on Wednesdays at the frequency of your choosing (weekly, fortnightly, or monthly). Our minimum subscription period

Experimenting doesn’t always work but it’s a good place to start. Here, we layered some Kenyan pea berry coffee with cascara tea in the batch brewer... the ratios maybe need work, so we’ll try again.

Cascara is not easy to get hold of in New Zealand, but you can get yours through our website (link in bio) or in person at the roasting depot.



Wondering what is cascara? Cascara, or coffee cherry tea as it’s sometimes called is the dried husks of coffee cherries. Known for being lightly fruity and mild, tasting notes will vary depending on the varietal - ours tastes like bright apple juice with a floral background, lingering subtle dried apricot.

Wondering how to brew Cascara tea? Our method is very simple: use 40g per 1L of water. Ideal water temp 90 degrees celsius. Steep for 4min, or longer if desired. Yield 2.5L tea from a 100g bag.

Once you’ve brewed it, Cascara tea is fun to play with, great hot or cold, it’s a versatile addition to all manner of beverages from refreshing iced teas to breezy summer cocktails.

You might have noticed... our website was down for a minute there, kinda stressful if we’re being honest.

It’s ok though, we’re back online baby, and to pass on the good (relieved) feels, all new coffee subscriptions until the end of September get 10% off their first order with code: SUBSTEN

Will you be joining us? Hassle-free coffee supply from a small family-run local business, what more could you want for your caffeine habit?

PSA: despite our best efforts to avoid it our Squarespace website is currently down, this is outside our control. It may have affected your subscription orders. If this is you, we’re sorry, please get in touch so we can help. We’re doing everything we can to make sure this is sorted soon, and the site back up and running. In the meantime we can take orders manually, our roastery and espresso bar are open and running as usual, and we’ll update you soon.

Just received this stunning piece from Louise
A member of the crew from La Marzocco New Zealand
There is nothing like a bit of something hand made

I can’t say thank you enough for letting us host
Also a massive thanks for sending the T-shirt down for my little girl
She told me that helping out at the event was the highlight of the year so far

Still reminiscing. We had a blast hosting the Bay of Plenty leg of the LaMarzocco Local, stoked to see so many members of our local coffee community turn out, it was a pleasure to welcome you all. Shout out to La Marzocco New Zealand and Bustle for putting on an epic night.
