This is a fantastic coffee. I’ve bought it for 7 years now. I first bought it for my cafe and it earned me a “best espresso in the village” award from lonely planet. It’s that good! I no longer have the cafe but I own a very good machine at home and I’m lucky enough to enjoy these beans every day.the service is fantastic as well. Great people to deal with. I want to give 5 stars but can only select 4 for some reason

I love a great black black coffee. And parcial to a splash of cream but if you can see through it it’s not strong enough 🙂
I brew in a pottery pot then sive. This is my favourite flavor capture 🙂

Another wonderful coffee option from these master coffee roasters, great for espresso/macchiato and plunger. Love the rich dark flavours without bitterness and love the freshness of the roasts. I wish my local cafes used your beans…

I have currently returned from a 3 month stint away and am so glad to have access to this gorgeous coffee again. Such a lovely, rich, smooth taste.

I have recently returned to Kawatiri Coffee after a few years away, having tried many different brands with mixed results.
After my espresso machine died I bought a fully manual lever device & a decent grinder & found Kawatiri Coffee in the supermarket.
Okari Dark is now my go to, & works well in my machine, with good crema & flavours.
When the supermarket shelves emptied over the last few weeks other brands couldn’t cut it, so ordered direct & will now continue doing so knowing it’s freshly roasted (essential for the best coffee) with great service from the team!
