ABOUT
The secret to this blend’s sweet nature lies in the origins of the beans & the roaster’s craft of gradually developing the coffee’s natural sugars during the maillard reaction, until the ‘sweet spot’ is found. Gently the Killerbee roasts, sweetly it strikes.

REGION SPOTLIGHT ON: Tarrazú, COSTA RICA
Perhaps the most famous of the coffee growing regions of Costa Rica, these coffees are grown at incredible altitudes with cool days and colder nights which slows down the coffees ripening, resulting in sweet, creamy & layered tropical fruits and honey.
ENVIRO ACTION
Killerbee, our most sweet-natured blend, is the perfect match for ReLove, a leading support service for people in crisis who need to create homes from scratch.Re-Love rescues unwanted furniture and white-goods from within the community, and from generous corporate partners, delivering everything directly to people who need a helping hand. Currently supporting 15 families per week and providing everything they need to make a house a home.
This rehoming of goods doesn’t just mean that $9m worth of furniture has been re-loved, but it’s also saved a tonne (over 2,000 tonnes, to be exact) of furniture from being dumped into landfill. Good for people, good for the planet.
