Darkstar Coffee

Darkstar Experience Lab Hours:
Monday - Friday 6:00AM - 2:30PM
Saturday 7:00AM - 1:30PM Darkstar Coffee is a 'specialty coffee' roaster.

This means is that our coffee is sourced from specialty growers from around the world, proven to produce an exceptional product with very few defects. Specialty coffee describes not just the coffee bean, but the entire process from soil to cup. From soil to cup:

Specialty beans are grown by experienced farmers taking advantage of microclimates and other environmental factors specific to their reg

ion. They work to produce a high quality cherry coffee bean, which is then picked at the optimum time. After any initial processing or washing, the green beans then pass through a regulated chain of custody to the coffee roaster. Obviously, the fewer agents in this chain of custody the better. Makin’ the grade:

To qualify as specialty coffee in the 'green' stage, the beans have to score more than 80/100 across all categories. The beans must be properly sized and dried and free of primary defects, with no quakers (unripe beans). Once we get the beans, we use profile roasting techniques to unlock their full potential. This ensures the coffee presents in the cup free of faults and taints and has distinctive attributes. A global standard:

'Specialty coffee' is a mark of quality, meeting globally recognised standards of excellence throughout the supply chain - from the farmer to you.

There’s something comforting about the smell of coffee filling the house.
The quiet moments before the day starts, the familiar routine, the feeling of home in every cup. ☕️

What is a pour over? ☕

A pour over is a manual brewing method where hot water is slowly poured over freshly ground coffee, allowing it to filter through the grounds and extract flavour as it drips into the cup below. It’s a clean, precise way of brewing that highlights the natural character of each coffee.

We rotate a selection of coffees so you can experience different origins and flavour profiles side by side:

- Wilton Benitez, Colombia (Washed)
Raspberry, Roasted Almond, Toffee
- Las Lajas, Costa Rica (Alma Negra)
Dried Mango, Passionfruit, Cacao
- Finca Pampojila, Guatemala (Washed)
Jammy Orange, Blackberry, Caramel
- Alaka, Ethiopia (Natural)
Raspberry, Mandarin, Dark Chocolate

Come in and explore what each cup has to offer.

Co fermentation session with Marcus at the La Marzocco Open House ☕
Marcus dived into how co fermented coffee is made, what actually happens during fermentation and how different fruits can completely shape the final cup.
Marcus walked everyone through the process of our newest blend - Strawberry Shortcake, followed by tasting sessions that gave people a chance to experience just how much processing impacts flavour.
From fermentation tanks to the final brew - it was a great chance to slow it down, ask questions and give it a taste!

03/06/2026

A recap of our La Marzocco open house event at Darkstar.
We had coffee professionals in the space sharing knowledge, pouring shots, talking technique and breaking down what goes into making great coffee on La Marzocco home machines.
From machine demos to hands on tastings, latte art sessions and co fermentation conversations, it was a full morning of learning directly from people who live and breathe coffee every day.
A big thank you to La Marzocco for sharing their expertise and giving everyone the chance to learn more about getting the best out of a home setup.
And thank you to everyone who came down, asked questions and got involved. ☕️

How does co-fermented coffee actually work? 🍓☕

For this coffee, only the ripest cherries were picked before beginning a 72-hour anaerobic fermentation process.

During fermentation, fresh strawberries were added directly into the tanks with the coffee cherries, allowing the fruit and coffee to ferment together and develop deeper sweetness, body and complexity naturally through processing.

After fermentation, the cherries were pulped and dried slowly on raised beds until reaching the perfect moisture level - carefully monitored the entire way through.
The result?

A bold, fruit-forward coffee with notes of fresh strawberry, vanilla ice cream and buttery shortcrust pastry 🍓

Available now at Darkstar.

Coffee tasting of our new blend☕
We had a great time sharing this one in store and getting some early feedback from customers and staff trying it for the first time.
Our new co-fermented blend is now pouring - built around a strawberry co-fermented Pink Bourbon from Colombia and balanced with an El Salvador component for everyday drinkability.
Expect notes of:
🍓 Fresh strawberry
🍦 Vanilla ice cream
🥐 Buttery shortcrust pastry
It’s bright, creamy, and a little bit different in the best way.
Come in and try it for yourself.
