"Wow mind blowing in how nice this coffee is. Had it on ice and had to let it sit just to get the full taste of it. Such a great coffee, just bought another bag."
Thomas. T
This is a truly individual coffee, probably unlike any you’ve tried before. Aged in oak, pre-used whisky barrels - this is a whole new ball game.
This started as a true experiment of “I wonder what will happen if we did this?” and the result blew us away - like a whole category we’d never tasted before. That big of a shift. Whether you like the result or not, is up to you - and I’ll be honest, some definitely do not. Some people however think its spectacularly awesome, wild and wonderful. One thing it definitely is, is unique!
One of the most fascinating elements is the presence of all of the rich, fruity, whisky flavours and aromas, removed from the distinctive alcohol punch (which of course is not there at all). The aroma out of the bag is intoxicating – but rest assured, drinking it is not as there’s no alcohol in the finished product. Have fun!
I don't have a grinder. What setting do I choose when buying your coffee? Let's step you through the options to help you find the perfect choice.
Espresso
This will be best for most domestic espresso machines.
Stove-top
Suits a traditional moka pot style brewer.
Aeropress
Great for those devices or similar from other manufacturers.
Filter
A little coarser now, good for most styles of pour-over brewing.
Plunger
This is our coarsest setting. For a slower brewed, smooth french-press.

FAQ
How fresh is the coffee when it arrives?
We roast fresh every day - that means it’s never sitting around in a warehouse waiting to be picked. Once it's roasted, we pack it up and send it out fresh, usually with all orders sent the next business day. You'll see the roast date right on the bag, so you know exactly when it was made.
How is it packaged? Will it stay fresh?
Every bag is fitted with a one-way valve to keep oxygen out and flavour in. We also use resealable packaging so your coffee stays as fresh on day 10 as it was on day 1. No stale beans here.
How long does shipping take?
Once your coffee is roasted, we typically ship the next business day. We use Australia Post, a reliable, nationwide, trackable delivery service. So your order gets to you quickly and in peak condition. You’ll get a tracking number as soon as it’s on its way.
What does it taste like?
Each of our blends is crafted from selected crops for a distinct flavour profile. For example, The Dark Seas tastes kinda like dark chocolate with a hint of cherry — rich, smooth, and never bitter. We use natural-tasting descriptions, not technical jargon, so you know what you're getting in the cup.

Quality control
Coffee’s a natural product, which means it can shift with the seasons. That’s why we cup our blends nearly every day to make sure each batch still hits that sweet spot.
