How this coffee quiz works
Not sure which coffee beans to buy? Answer a few quick questions about what you actually like: how you drink your coffee, whether you enjoy bright, fruity flavours or something more chocolatey, and how adventurous you're feeling. We match your answers against specialty coffee that independent roasters have in stock right now and show you three picks, plus one wildcard to try something new.
- Tell us how you drink your coffee, from flat whites to pour-over.
- Pick the flavours you like. No coffee jargon needed.
- Get three in-stock matches and buy straight from the roaster.
What coffee should I buy as a gift?
Choose gift mode and answer for them. We'll suggest coffees they're likely to enjoy within your budget, and tell you which grind to pick if they don't own a grinder.
Should I buy light or dark roast coffee?
Lighter roasts keep more of a coffee's fruit and brightness and suit filter brewing. Darker roasts taste rounder and more chocolatey and suit espresso and milk drinks. The quiz works this out from how you drink your coffee, so you don't need to know.
Whole bean or ground coffee?
Whole bean stays fresh for longer if you have a grinder. If you don't, choose the grind that matches your brewer: espresso, filter or plunger. Your results tell you which one to pick.
Where do the coffees come from?
Every match is specialty coffee from an independent roaster, starting with roasters across New Zealand, and you order it directly from them.
