Kia ora whÄnau,
Fatherās Day always gets me thinking.
Mt Atkinson has been a family business for 18 years. That means a lot of early mornings, a lot of hard calls, and a lot of showing up because thatās just what you do when people are counting on you.
Sound familiar?
Thatās what being a dad is too.
Heās the one who somehow knows how to fix everything, even things heās never seen before. The designated BBQ master, whether he asked for the job or not. The guy who tells the same joke every single time and still expects a laugh. The one whoāll drive across town for you at 11pm and call it āno big deal.ā
A lot of early mornings. A lot of hard work. A lot of love, even when nobodyās counting.
Happy Fatherās Day to every dad out there. Go on, put your feet up. Make yourself a good coffee. Youāve earned it.
NgÄ mihi,
Jacob

Some drippers work great. Some win World Championships. This oneās done both.
Nas Jaafar used this exact dripper to take out the 2026 World Brewers Cup title in Brussels. Now itās on our shelves. Clean, balanced, repeatable. No babysitting, no guesswork, just a consistent pour every time.
Made from durable Tritan with low thermal conductivity, so your brew temp stays stable start to finish. Finished clear, so you can watch it happen.
Here weāre brewing it with our newest release specialty coffee, Konga, an Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. Championship-level brewing, on your own kitchen bench.

Meet our new seasonal bagel - Avondale
Made with whipped feta, butternut smash, portobello mushrooms, sautƩed seeds, and a good drizzle of LOUDER chilli oil.
Vegetarian, easily made vegan too (and still just as good)
Yes, that means the avo & tomato is taking a break till the sunās back. Trust us, this oneās worth the swap.
Come try it in the cafe.

Ash got creative with our Whisky Coffee and came up with a delicious iced latte, topped with vanilla cold foam.
So good, weāll definitely be trying this one ourselves.
Hot, cold, however you like it, thereās more than one way to enjoy this coffee. Get yours before we sell out.

How does coffee end up tasting like whisky? š„ā
The answer is in the barrel.
Ten minutes down the road from us is Thomson Whisky, small-batch, single malt, smoked with native manuka wood and South Island peat. A few years back we got talking to Mat Thomson about barrels. Turns out theyāre nearly impossible to get in NZ, and Thomsonās one of the only distilleries here making them commercially.
Every year, Mat sets a handful aside for us. We rest our coffee in them for months. The woodās still holding onto everything the whisky left behind. Manuka smoke, oak, vanilla, dark chocolate. The coffee pulls it all in.
We sat down with Mat to show you exactly how it happens š„ Full video linked in bio.
Two Westie artisans. One barrel. One very small batch. Sells out fast, every time. Grab yours before itās gone

INTRODUCING THE WHISKY MONT BLANC āš„
Think Irish coffee, Mt Atkinson style.
Our Whisky Barrel Aged coffee, served hot, finished the way a good whisky coffee should be, cream on top, warmth all the way down. Manuka smoke, 90% dark chocolate, oak and vanilla under a soft cloud of cream foam.
This is the cosy one. The one you order when itās cold outside and youāve got nowhere to be.
In-store only, while this yearās barrel lasts. Pop into the coffee shop and warm up properly

Once a year, this happens š„āļø. Jacobs out in the floor putting our Whisky Barrel Aged Coffee straight in front of customers before they know whats coming. Months in a THOMSON WHISKY NEW ZEALAND manuka smoke whisky barrel. Then roasted. Once itās gone itās gone. The reactions never get old.

INTRODUCING WHISKY COFFEE āļøš„
Our most anticipated annual release is out now. Coffee meets whisky. Made in collaboration with Thomson Whisky, our beans rest for months in a freshly emptied Thomson Manuka Smoke Whisky barrel, slowly absorbing bold whisky character.
The result? Big whisky vibes with notes of 90% dark chocolate, oak and a smooth vanilla finish.
The only Whisky Barrel Aged Coffee of its kind in Aotearoa. Hot or cold, itās unforgettable.
Each pack comes with a 50ml vanilla syrup and a brew recipe card, so you can make it yours.
Limited release. When itās gone, itās gone.

What people say
Mt Atkinson Coffee on Portage Road in Auckland is a coffee shop with a heartwarming story.

Jacob's vision was to serve the best coffee in the world, and he has certainly achieved that goal.
What sets Mt Atkinson Coffee apart from other coffee shops is their direct trade partnership with Ugandan coffee farmers. Jacob's trip to Uganda in 2010 inspired him to help these farmers get a fair price for their product. Today, Mt Atkinson Coffee imports container loads of coffee from Uganda, which directly contributes to community transformational initiatives in the Kanungu region of West Uganda.

Customers rave about the quality of their beans and the expert roasting that goes into each cup. Whether you're looking for a classic espresso or something more adventurous like a flat white or cappuccino, you won't be disappointed.
Overall, Mt Atkinson Coffee is more than just a place to grab your morning caffeine fix - it's a business with heart and soul that truly cares about making a difference in the world. And with some of the best coffee around, it's definitely worth checking out if you're in Auckland.
