Our story
Made by people who love coffee, for people who do too.
A small team, a lot of cups, and a genuine curiosity about where coffee comes from.
How it started
Our story
miau coffee began with a simple frustration: it was hard to find coffee in the city that was treated with the same care all the way from farm to cup. So we started roaster visits, cupping sessions, and a lot of testing — chasing beans with real character instead of just a bag with a nice label.
What grew out of that was a small café built around craftsmanship, honest sourcing, and a room worth lingering in. We wanted a place where a curious first-time visitor and a seasoned coffee nerd could both find something worth coming back for.
Today, miau coffee is where we welcome our neighbourhood every morning, host tastings and workshops most weeks, and keep chasing the next great cup — one origin at a time.
A quick primer
What is specialty coffee?
It's a simple idea with a lot of craft behind it: coffee graded, sourced and prepared with enough care that its origin actually shows up in the cup.
Traceable origins
Specialty coffee is scored above 80 points and can be traced back to a specific farm, region and harvest — not just a country of origin.
Careful processing & roasting
How the cherry is processed — washed, natural or honey — and how it's roasted both shape the flavour long before it reaches us.
Brewed & tasted with intent
Correct grind, water and technique bring out tasting notes — fruit, florals, chocolate — that are cupped and recorded, not guessed at.
