Golden Bean Collection

White Horse Coffee has been crowned the Overall Golden Bean Champion Australasia in 2024.

After years of dedicated participation in the competition, White Horse Coffee has reached a significant milestone. Co-founder Dominick expressed the team's excitement: “We’ve won a bunch of medals over the years, including a Gold Medal last year in the ‘Elite’ (filtered coffee) category, which we’re super proud of! But we’d never managed to come home as the Overall Winner. We could not be prouder to be named the Overall Champion.”

Dominick shared an insight into the team's dynamic: “We’re always trying to do better. Behind the scenes, the arguments are real!” This passion and commitment to improvement have undoubtedly contributed to White Horse Coffee's success, as the team continually seeks innovative ways to enhance their roasting techniques and flavour profiles.
