Seasonal Single Origins
o celebrate the opening of our new espresso bar, we have selected and roasted 3 wonderfully unique Single Origins to present to our customers over the next 3 months. With each hailing from a different continent, different processing and varied varietals, we have a spectrum that is sure to please all discerning pallets and tastes. Let’s jump into the list of what we have going on…
Single of the Month - Honduras - Loma Grande - Honey
Although Honey processed coffee’s are not too mysterious to us here at Mosey, this latest offering has been a real surprise on the cupping table and as the batch brew I am slurping on as I write this. It is 3 days off roast and ,whilst the freshness is still there a little, you can really tell this is a sweet, delicate and complex cup just waiting for a day or so more aging. This is definitely what we tasted on the cupping table; with soft notes of orange and berries with a sweet finish and moderate acidity. This is one of those coffee’s that you could drink all week and never be bored nor have your palate worn out. Interesting enough for the discerning coffee professional but super accessible to anyone trying filter coffee for the first time.
Altitude - Why it matters…
As coffee enthusiasts and purveyors of exceptional flavor, we at Mosey Coffee Roasters believe that the altitude at which coffee is grown plays a crucial role in the quality of the final beverage. Here, we present a list of compelling reasons outlining why coffee grown at high altitude surpasses its counterparts grown at lower altitudes.
Coffee Varietal - Why it matters…
From Coffee Growers at Origin to Importers and Coffee Roasters, the varietal of coffee can be part of the consideration when choosing to invest in this amazing product. Whether it is pest resistance, fruit yield, flavour or quality, the varietal plays an important role in how the end product presents in the cup. There are many different varietals of coffee grown in the world today and here are a few reasons why some are chosen above others and why some garner some of the highest prices in the world of specialty coffee.
New Specialty Coffee Espresso Bar coming to the Central Coast
Nestled in the heart of the industrial precinct of Morisset on the Central Coast, Mosey Coffee Roasters Espresso Bar will be built within the foyer of Central Coast Flooring, next door to The Hive Academy childcare centre. Although this will be a primarily “to go” espresso bar we will have some seating for those who want to linger longer. The space is quite compact but we’re confident it will add value to the daily working lives of commuters, workers and professionals.

Origin - Why it matters - South America
As far as coffee production is concerned, South America and the countries within, produce the highest percentage of the worlds coffee supply, with Brazil, Colombia, Honduras, Peru, and, Guatemala in the top 10 exporters. We’re going to explore these 5 countries in a little more detail in terms of what to expect from the Specialty Coffees available from each. Now, there will be some generalizations; however, as we explore the origins of the world, you should be able to see and taste the differences as you try varying coffee’s from these origins. We’re going to leave processing to just the main 3, washed, natural, and pulped naturals, as these are the most common that you will encounter and are easier to group. So…why does origin matter?

Single Origin - Rwanda Musasa
We haven’t tried too many Rwandan Coffee’s quite like this beautiful washed Musasa. Instead of the usual spice and warmth you sometimes expect from a Rwandan, this coffee presents lovely delicate floral aromas along with citrus and a pleasant tart fruitiness.
Coffee Processing - Honey
When it comes to specialty coffee production, there's a myriad of methods and techniques employed to bring out the best flavors from the beans. One such method that has gained popularity over the years is the honey processing method.
Coffee Processing - Natural
Among the various processing techniques, the natural processing method has emerged as a favorite among specialty coffee producers and connoisseurs alike. In this blog post, we will delve into the mesmerizing journey of coffee cherries transforming into those precious beans using the natural processing method.
Coffee Processing - Washed
Washed coffee processing, also known as the wet or fully washed method, is a meticulous process designed to create a clean and balanced flavor profile. As the name suggests, it involves thoroughly washing the coffee cherries after they have been harvested. This technique has gained popularity due to its ability to produce consistently exceptional coffees.
Single Origin - Colombia -Bochica - Washed
Colombian coffee’s are some of the best worldwide and these days there are an infinite array flavors being produced through varietal and processing combinations. This, however, is an example of a more traditional Colombian coffee with notes of Caramel, Stone Fruit and an apple acidity. Beautiful and delicate brewed as a filter or batch and nice and round as an aero or french press.

Delightfully nuanced as an espresso and produces a velvety crema that punches through milk perfectly. This coffee continues to surprise you with new notes everytime you taste it. Very versatile and definitely a fave at Mosey.
Blend Highlight - Chill Pill
We created this blend for everyone. We wanted a coffee that could transend both espresso and milk and be equally delicious as both. A perfect accompaniment with either vegemite toast or your almond croissant in the morning. A great way to end a meal at your next dinner party. Silky, smooth and delightfully chocolatey.
What is filter coffee?
As my home coffee method of choice, filter coffee remains one of the best ways to prepare specialty coffee without the need for expensive machines. It is inexpensive, fast, and delicious. Filter also offers the user some insights into coffee extraction while being forgiving even if preparation went somewhat awry. However, there are a few key things we need to know before we dive headfirst into brewing our coffee with these method(s).
