Colombia in a cup

Discover the rich heritage, meticulous craftsmanship, and exquisite flavours of Origen Colombian Coffee. We focus exclusively on single-origin specialty coffee with SCA scores above 83 points, ensuring a premium experience in every brew.

As producers originally from Caldas, we work hand-in-hand with smallholder family farms back home. By cutting out the middlemen, we ensure absolute transparency, fair compensation, and a direct link from the lush landscapes of Colombia straight to your cup in New Zealand. It is more than a drink—it’s a direct cultural connection.

For the discerning coffee lover

Origen is crafted for those who view their daily coffee as a mindful ritual people who truly care about what they put into their bodies, value authentic roots, and demand ethical transparency. Our ideal coffee lovers don't just seek complex tasting profiles like red fruits, jasmine florals, or rich caramel. They seek a clean, toxin-free beverage that honors their physical well-being. When you choose Origen, you choose a coffee meticulously selected to prevent the digestive discomfort of mass-market blends, while actively supporting women coffee leaders and small working families in rural Colombia.

 

The origen difference

What makes Origen truly stand out in New Zealand's competitive coffee scene?

  • Proudly Driven by Women: We source our beans directly from smallholders, with an intentional focus on empowering the women who spearhead and sustain the majority of these farming households.
  • A Flawlessly Clean Profile: Unlike standard commercial coffee that aggressively over-roasts and burns defective beans, we sort and select only healthy, pristine Arabica grains.
  • Precise Medium Roasting: We roast to highlight the natural sweetness and vibrant terroir of Colombia. The result is a smooth, stomach-friendly cup crafted to love your body back.
