A monthly specialty coffee subscription for curious coffee lovers who want to taste the true diversity of flavour that coffee has to offer — roasted and shipped fresh from Portugal.

We've been quietly building something we're really proud of, and it feels like the right time to share it. Over the past few months, Clifftop Coffee has taken some significant steps forward — a new roastery space, a new team member, upgraded equipment, and our first community events. Here's what's been happening.

"Thinking of opening a specialty coffee shop? Here's everything to consider — from location and equipment to choosing the right specialty coffee roaster to supply your café."

Arabica coffee is often described as a Goldilocks plant; meaning it's pretty fussy: rain, sun, rich volcanic soils, not too hot, not too cold and a fair amount of altitude. Therefore, it's incredibly vulnerable to sudden climatic changes. When coffee was first commercialised, Arabica and Robusta were chosen as the strains of coffee to develop due to Arabica's sweet/fruity taste and the more hardy growing power of Robusta.
