RETRO Coffee With A Touch Of NOSTALGIA
Firstly Lets Get One Thing Straight
Retro Espresso totally rejects the fashionable adoption of wine industry snobbery terminology commonly used by so called ‘Hipster’ coffee roasters to describe their particular signature blends, elevating them beyond the understaniding of the everyday consumer.
Why?
Coffee should be luscious and evocative, transporting you, through time, to another place where pleasurable memories are all enveloping.
Number 96 Blend is a complex and comforting as a favourite memory from your youth.
Like the Apartment Block tenants in the Iconic Australian Retro TV Drama, Number 96, we meld 8 beans with 8 district characteristics into a creamy luscious Espresso with a hit of rich chocolate to finish.
Where?
Since its launch 7 years ago. Retro Espresso #96 Blend has created huge interest and a devoted following among travellers and locals on the Fraser Coast in South East Queensland.
