Southern Sky Roasters (Coffee Roastery) — Restaurant in South Island

I am an avid coffee lover. I make it all the time at home - both filter & espresso-based. Imagine how thrilled I was when I found that there was a roaster in Tekapo area!

My wife and I popped by one morning (we were only in the region for effectively 40 hours). We were so warmly welcomed that my Asian conservativeness felt at ease. Their roasts are fresh, sweet, and juicy! I love their set up. John and Martina take a huge pride in what they do. You can see it and feel it! I bought a couple of bags for myself and as gifts - I would have gotten more, but one can only drink so much coffee in so little time.

They made me a long black, which i brought with me on my drive to Mt Cook and up the Sealy Tarns track. I also did pour overs every morning I was in NZ, This was my companion on my long drives, hikes, and sitting in the comfort of my lodging.

When I close my eyes, I still remember the sights, smells, tastes, and people interactions from my time in NZ. It was really phenomenal. Thank you John and Martina for being...

This is my second time getting coffee from Southern Sky Roasters, who now deliver to Twizel weekly. First I tried the Aurora Blend, a strong, lively cup that really wakes you up in the morning. Now I’m enjoying the Stella Blend which is more smooth, creamy, relaxing, and just right for a second cup later in the day.

Both blends taste really crafted and full of character. Having their coffee has added a lovely glow to my morning routine, and I’m really looking forward to trying their future blends. Loving having this quality coffee delivered...

Don't regret leaving Christchurch without buying good coffee beans. Although it's the only roastery in the Tekapo area, they sell fresh and well-balanced beans. If you're a romantic who knows how to brew your own coffee while traveling in a campervan, you should definitely visit this place. It looks like a typical New Zealand rural home, but they were very kind when I asked for help in the yard. I bought some for myself and gifts for my friends! Bless Southern...
