A coffee blend inspired by roots and tradition

Named after the Aspen tree, this coffee blend pays homage to ONA Coffee’s origins in Canberra, where poplar-lined roads were a familiar sight for the team. Evolving from the much-loved Black Betty blend, Aspen was developed to offer a more refined take on classic espresso – preserving bold sweetness while enhancing balance and structure.

Aspen is designed to shine in espresso-based drinks like flat whites, cappuccinos and lattes. It works seamlessly with both commercial machines and home setups, producing consistent, café-quality results without the need for complex adjustments.

Carefully sourced, seasonally updated coffee beans

ONA Coffee uses fresh, seasonal coffee beans to maintain Aspen’s signature flavour year-round. While the components may vary, the blend always delivers a chocolate-rich base with nutty undertones and a creamy, milk-friendly finish. Currently, the Aspen coffee blend includes coffee beans from Ethiopia, Honduras and Nicaragua, selected for body, structure and sweetness.

Each origin is roasted separately and blended to highlight the unique characteristics of the beans, ensuring the flavour remains consistent across every batch.
