Their Story
Manuka Brother's Coffee was founded by two brothers-in-law, Graeme and Tyson, in mid-2013. The idea was sparked by a simple question: if wood-fired pizzas tasted better, what could wood embers do for coffee? Their initial experiments involved a small, DIY roaster affectionately named 'piglet',…
