Wholesale
King Carlos Coffee is a Hurstville specialty roaster that roasts custom blends for wholesale accounts across QLD, VIC and NSW. Roasting since 2002 on a Toper drum roaster, with three house blends of its own and the means to build yours.
Some venues want a coffee that's theirs and no one else's. Contract roasting is exactly that: a custom blend built to your brief and roasted in Hurstville, for wholesale accounts that want their own house coffee. The quickest way to start is a chat as part of your supply deal.

Why a custom blend
An off-the-shelf blend is a fine place to start, but a custom one is yours: a flavour profile matched to your venue, your milk, and the way your customers drink. King Carlos already roasts three of its own blends, so building one to a brief is familiar ground.
It's roasted on the same Toper drum roaster in Hurstville that has earned 15+ medals across the Sydney Royal Fine Food Show, Golden Bean Australasia and the Australian International Coffee Awards. You bring the brief, the roastery brings the craft.
