OUR COFFEE

 

We have chosen Ripe Coffee Roasters as our primary bean. They are a small batch Wellington based roaster with great attention to detail and flavour. We are pleased to be the only café in Taupo that offers Ripe Coffee Beans.

We make our black coffees using single origin beans, chosen and roasted for use purely as black coffee. Our milk coffees are made on a blend "Valley" which is a very smooth easy drinking blend.

For our cold brew and filter batch brew we currently use Ozone Coffee Roasters an international specialty coffee company roasting out of New Plymouth.

Our comprehensive barista training program equips aspiring coffee enthusiasts with the skills and knowledge needed to master the art of coffee-making. From espresso extraction to latte art, our expert instructors ensure you're ready to brew perfection in every cup!
