Roast Dark

Smoky, deeply earthy and unlike any other coffee, with bold peppercorn spice and a rich, lingering finish.

In the 16th century, Dutch traders used green Java beans as ships' ballast and discovered that months of ocean air, salt and wooden holds transformed them completely, mellowing the acidity and deepening the flavour into something Europe couldn't get enough of.

Today, that transformation is recreated on land, with the beans aged underground in wooden barrels for a remarkable five years.

Available as whole beans or freshly ground to your preference, delivering exceptional flavour in every cup.

Particularly wonderful as a cortado or latte. History in every cup.
