On the Grind

Roaster Collaboration #20 - Rush Coffee

Roaster Collaboration #20 - Rush Coffee

Rush are a boutique roastery specialising in the creation of exceptional coffees. 
Hayden and Emma began rush in 2006 from a shared passion for coffee. Over time their business has grown. In 2012 Hayden and Emma were joined by daughter Betsy, making Rush a true family business. For something that started initially as a hobby, in a converted garage on the Prujean’s lifestyle block, at 88m² it has expanded quite considerably in recent years! Ethics are fundamentally important to them.

Their beans are sourced from predominantly Fair Trade suppliers - high quality beans produced by growers who receive a fair price. Hayden and Emma sell coffee locally at the Mangawhai Village Market, every Saturday. They grind the beans fresh to order and are always happy to talk coffee! If you’re ever in the area, pop in and see them!

This month you're trying New Zealand's most awarded blend with 4 gold medals, 1 silver medal and two bronzes across national and international events. Rush Espresso is a beautifully complex, sweet and well balanced coffee blended from 5 of the world’s great coffee growing regions. It's a strong blend with chocolate and fruit notes so works perfectly as espresso, plunger, or filter!
