The Sweet Sting recipe was perfected over months of trial and error, tested on our very patient friends and family. Even the type of chilli we use is very specific, we experimented with 9 varieties until we found the perfect balance of heat and flavour. We're a completely natural product, our honey is sourced from a Nelson based supplier and our fresh chillies come from Hawkes Bay and Northland, the only extra addition is a dash of organic apple cider vinegar.

Good coffee tastes better when you know who it's from
90% of coffee is traded on price alone, set by people with no connection to those who grow it. We don't think that's good enough. Direct trade means paying well above the commodity rate, building long-term relationships with the same Ugandan communities since 2018, and funding growers through the off-season. Every bag has helped provide water tanks and cover medical support for Ugandan families. Direct trade isn't a marketing line, it's the reason Mt Atkinson exists.
