Raspberry Candy Filter

TASTES LIKE

Raspberry candy, chocolate and hibiscus

Inspired by the coffee used by ONA Coffee founder, Saša Śestić in his winning routine at the 2015 World Barista Championship, Raspberry Candy has become a favourite in the coffee industry for its playful fruit notes and indulgent sweetness. This long-awaited filter release of Raspberry Candy captures those same fruit-forward flavours in a black coffee experience. With layers of Ethiopian coffees and a delicate roast profile, it highlights the unmistakable raspberry candy character alongside a deep, rich chocolate and a floral, hibiscus-like finish.

How is Raspberry Candy different as a filter coffee?

Released in 2025 to mark 10 years of Raspberry Candy, this filter version shifts the focus toward clarity and structure. The fruit character becomes more defined and layered, with raspberry sweetness sitting alongside floral notes and a clean, tea-like finish — a profile that took time to develop into a filter expression we were confident sharing.

What kind of flavour experience can I expect when brewed as filter?

Expect a more transparent expression of the coffee. The cup opens with bright raspberry and berry notes, followed by a softer chocolate depth and a delicate hibiscus-like finish that lingers.

Who is Raspberry Candy Filter best suited for?

It’s ideal for those who enjoy expressive, fruit-forward coffees and want to explore a more refined, black coffee experience. It’s also a great way to experience Raspberry Candy in a different format, highlighting its complexity and origin.
