Bean banter

Being outside of Christchurch is no excuse for bad coffee, so whether you’re heading to Kaikōura, Nelson, or the deep south, there’ll be an establishment not too far away selling Switch Espresso.

It’s about time a great Indonesian coffee joined our single origin lineup. We’ve found a partner in Indonesia that’s doing awesome work in the community, and growing incredible coffee beans, and we’re proud to announce the latest addition to the Switch Espresso range: Sumatra Wahana-Sidikalang.

At Switch we’re super proud of the fact we’re 100% New Zealand owned and operated. This is a genuine Christchurch operation that started in New Brighton in 2006 and we now operate out of our boutique roastery in Middleton.

We’ve got a special one-off blend for you this September: Kikorangi. You’ll never see it again, so if you want to try an exclusive, top-notch coffee blend by Switch Espresso, then get in and order yourself a bag now.

Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee, and the source of the latest addition to Switch Espresso’s single origin coffee lineup.

Switch Espresso is very lucky to have a working relationship with the Nova Aliança farm in Brazil. In the past, you may have even tried our Brazil Fazenda Nova Aliança coffee. Now we’re proud to present the exclusive single origin Brazil Roccaporena.

So you’re looking for a truly local coffee supplier? If you’re here you’re hopefully considering Switch Espresso as the trusted partner who will bring you coffee beans, train your baristas, maintain your machines and generally help you help your caffeine-fiend customers.
