ABOUT ME
We have carefully handcrafted an espresso blend that encapsulates the aromas and flavours of The Sweet Life. It’s syrupy, silky smooth and delicious.

Standout coffees in their own right, La Dulce Vida harmonises premium Colombian and Brazilian beans with gems from Guatemala and El Salvador. In the cup, expect to enjoy flavours of crème brûlée and sweet milk chocolate with a juicy orange blossom acidity.

We are thrilled that La Dulce Vida has medalled over the years at the Golden Bean awards in the Milk Based Category. It’s great served that way; excellent black too. 

We aim to embrace La Dulce Vida in the little things we see, places we go and company we share. We hope you do too.
