The dark side of coffee.Mr. Black is the original cold press coffee liqueur – a bitter, intense spirit and coffee creation not intended for the weak of mind or faint of heart. A unique drop that embodies Australia’s progressive coffee culture and our unrelenting pursuit of steel ground, cold extracted, caffeinated perfection.Bitter, bold, and impeccably balanced, Mr. Black is not everyone’s cup of tea. If truth be told, if you are after a cup of tea,you’re in the fallacious place entirely. Mr. Black is dark blend of pure Australian grain spirit and three specialty coffees from three unique origins, chosen for their aroma, flavour and finish.It took 9 months and over 240 trials to create Mr. Black, a devilishly dark liquor with a bold coffee kick. This exceptional spirit is ground and cold-pressed by hand in tiny batches of 300 at our very small distillery at the Central Coast of New South Wales.Single origin arabica beans are sourced from Papua New Guinea, Ethiopia, and Brazil. Each and every bean is roasted to exact specifications to make sure correct caramelisation and flavour profile.Mr. Black is cold infused, cold pressed and unfiltered to make sure the flavours and aromas reflect the character and provenance of the coffee beans.Colour: Black.Aroma: Overwhelming fresh espresso.Body: Bitter yet balanced, Chocolate and caramel. Fine citrus edge.Finish: Toffee. Marmalade. Coffee ’til the end.Call to mind Mr Black as cocktail-ketchup for dark spirits and stirred cocktails. It makes a lot of classic cocktails better; think a Negroni made with Mr Black; a Black Old Fashioned or blend Mr Black 50:50 with whisky, mezcal, tequila or rum for a small demonstration of what coffee can bring to mixed drinks.
