    In Antigua Valley, coffee is a family tradition and a point of pride. Generations of farmers have worked the rich volcanic soil, perfecting their craft and producing some of the finest coffee’s we’ve ever tasted. A favourite of ours since 1971, this coffee is rich and refined, with elegant notes of dusted cocoa and soft spice.
  • Behind the design
    This design celebrated the iconic quetzal bird amidst plant life from the Antigua region with illustrations that are artful and sophisticated. layers of texture and delicate linework create depth and detail throughout the design. The colours are shifted to warm, coppery tones, speaking to the coffee’s roast and lending a beautiful shimmer.
