Tasting notes

Australian Coffee Roasters Hall of Fame

Quists award winning coffee

We’re very proud to have been inducted into the Australian Coffee Roasters Hall of Fame at the Golden Bean Coffee Roasting Competition. Of particular note is our award-winning Miscela Italiana: a blend worthy of bragging rights in our humble opinion. Our Miscela Italiana has racked up numerous silver and bronze medals and has rightly secured its place as one of the most popular styles of coffee created by our expert roaster (god bless you Jim). Afterall, awards are just a fancy way of saying “people really love this coffee.”

As described by our experts, Miscela Italiana is a masterpiece of coffee craftsmanship. Combining over eight distinct origins, it offers a full-bodied flavour with a sweet and rich aroma. It’s the perfect blend for espresso or milk drinks, making it suitable for most times of the day. So go ahead, give your taste buds a medal worthy experience!
