Sound Familiar?

Most people I talk to are dealing with one of these

"Too many options"

You're staring at 40 bags of coffee online and just… closing the tab. I get it. Tell me what you like and I'll narrow it down for you.

Quiz takes 60 seconds

"I keep buying the same thing"

You've got a go-to bag and it's fine. But there's a whole world of NZ coffee you haven't tried yet. I'll introduce you.

5 roasters, 40+ coffees

"Is this actually fresh?"

Supermarket beans sit on shelves for months. Every bag here is roasted to order by the roaster themselves. No warehouse, no stale stock.

Why People Stick Around

It comes down to three things

Discovery

10 NZ roasters, 52+ coffees, one place. You'd never find half of these on your own — that's the point.

"The NZ label I could find that sold multiple brands" — Andrew

Personal

It's just me — Jono. I read every email, pick the roasters myself, and actually care if you like what you get.

"What I'd miss most is the personal interaction" — Rui

Freshness

No warehouse. Every bag is roasted to order by the roaster themselves and shipped direct to you.

Hey, I'm Jono

For years, my fiancée and I brewed supermarket beans on a little Sunbeam machine every morning. Perfectly adequate. Then one day in Christchurch, I wandered into a local café and tried something completely different. That was it, I was hooked.

What followed was pure obsession. We became coffee detectives, hunting down every NZ roaster we could find. But there was no single place that brought them all together.

So I built that place.
