Great Coffee. Real Roots.
Kia ora from Ōtautahi Christchurch — we’re Max, Gess, and our kids, Milena and Theo, the family behind KPO Coffee Co.
Our story stretches from Aotearoa to Brazil, built on a love for coffee, culture, and connection.
Our mission is simple: Deliver the freshest, fully traceable, and never pretentious Coffee right to your front door. Just high-quality beans, grown with care, and roasted to bring out their best.
Sustainably Sourced
We only buy from growers who are paid fairly, treated with respect, and supported to keep producing exceptional coffee, season after season.
Fair wages, responsible farming, and quality at every step come at a cost — and we believe it’s worth every cent.
Because our enjoyment of coffee shouldn’t come at the expense of the planet, or the people and communities that grow it.
Roasted Right Here in Ōtautahi Christchurch
We roast our specialty beans right here in Ōtautahi Christchurch — fresh, local, and always made to order.
Keeping it local means supporting our community. We’re 100% New Zealand owned, and any profit we make goes straight back into our local economy.
No fuss, just reliable, top-quality roast you can taste in every cup.
Exceptional Coffee, Plain Packaging
At KPO Coffee Co., we believe great coffee doesn’t need flashy packaging to stand out.
Our coffee comes in simple Detpak paper bags — free from plastic and stickers, and intentionally kept colour-free to cut back on unnecessary waste.
While these bags are recyclable in Australia, recycling options here in New Zealand are still limited. We’re upfront about this and always looking for better ways to reduce our impact.
Simplicity is part of our promise: clean, honest packaging that lets the coffee speak for itself.
Our Darkest Roast | Colombia / Brazil
Named after our son Theo, this is our darkest, boldest blend — rich and full-bodied with deep notes of dark chocolate and caramel. It’s got strength and depth, perfect for anyone who loves a coffee with serious flavour and character.
“Whatungarongaro te tangata, toitū te whenua.”
People may disappear, but the land remains.
This coffee honours whakapapa, whenua, and the steady rhythm of everyday life. It’s a brew with mana that keeps you grounded and connected, sip after sip.
Medium Roast | Brazil / Colombia
Roasted right here in Ōtautahi Christchurch, this blend is all about bringing people together. It’s smooth and balanced with a bit of punch — strong enough for your favourite milk drinks but easy-going for any coffee lover.
Think dark chocolate and toasted almonds, with a mellow flavour that sticks with you.
“He tangata, he tangata, he tangata.” It’s all about the people.
Our house blend is a shoutout to family, community, and the tough but welcoming spirit of Christchurch — a coffee that feels like home and always has a seat at the table.
Medium-Light Roast | Brazil Single Origin
Inspired by our daughter Milena, whose roots stretch from São Paulo to Aotearoa, this blend is all about joy, warmth, and light. Roasted right here in Ōtautahi Christchurch, it’s a tribute to the bright energy she brings to every room — and every cup.
Perfect for pour-over or French press, it’s a bright, golden coffee with caramel sweetness, a touch of citrus, and soft nutty notes. Like sunshine in a cup — easygoing, uplifting, and full of soul.
“A alegria está na simplicidade.”
The joy is in the simplicity.
This blend captures the heart of São Paulo and the spirit of home — made for slow mornings, shared smiles, and the little things that matter most.
