From our mountain to yours.
The new Mt Atkinson look is here. A black and white base bag, a colour sticker, and a different colour for every coffee we roast.
Black and white is the mountain at its purest. The colour is where the story is told. Every coffee has its own colour, character and people behind it.
We roast it at Mt Atkinson, West Auckland. Then it lands in your hands.
Tomorrow, itās on us. A free small coffee* with every bag you buy at the coffee shop in West Auckland.
Find your colour and tell us which oneās yours.

Next Tuesday Mt Atkinson coffee gets a new look š
A project thatās been in the wings for two years. Every blend, every single origin, all of it.
Weāre not showing you yetā¦ but we will say this.
Everything we do starts with the mountain. Itās where our coffee grows, itās where our name comes from, and itās about to be front and centre on every bag you pick up.
One more hint: it starts out black and white. The colour comes in right after.
Keep an eye on our socials. Weāll be sharing behind the scenes, free coffee and the fun we have had along the the way.

Dave Dobbyn had a tune, weāve got the other slice of heaven š
Slice of Heaven is our experimental co-ferment coffee. Plenty of you have loved it, and some of you canāt quite get your heads around it. You might absolutely love it or hate it, but you wonāt know until you try.
Still on the fence? Four reasons to give it a go:
1. A tropical holiday in a can. Try it cold, summer is coming.
2. Fun to try, even better to gift.
3. One of a kind. You wonāt find it anywhere else.
4. Weāve sold over 600 so far and the reviews have been great.
Grab one for yourself, and one for someone who deserves a holiday.

Coffee is a fruit that grows on trees. š
Itās easy to forget when it turns up in a bag, but every cup starts as a cherry, grown by someone who knows that tree well.
On our latest trip to Uganda, we sat down with Joan Chebet, an incredible woman who grows epic coffee. We walked her farm, then made her a cup of her own coffee, roasted the way we roast it. Sheād never tasted it like that before.
No middlemen. Just Joan, her farm, and what a direct relationship makes possible.
Happy International Coffee Day. Today weāre thinking of the growers behind every cup. They do the hard mahi so we get to enjoy something this good. ā

One of a kind watermelon co-ferment blend.

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

What people say
Mt Atkinson Coffee on Portage Road in Auckland is a coffee shop with a heartwarming story. Founded by Jacob Parsons in 2007, the coffee shop has come a long way since its humble beginnings as a coffee cart. 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.
But it's not just about doing good - Mt Atkinson Coffee also serves up some seriously delicious coffee. 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.
