Our Awards

Great Taste Awards

The Great Taste Awards have always been very important to Dark Woods. Not just because over 14,000 products a year are entered, or because they are judged by a wide range of food lovers - deli owners, chefs, food critics etc, but because all the products are blind tasted. The quality of the products have to stand up for themselves, with only the best winning the highly acclaimed stars, and only a handful going on to win the "Golden Forks" each year.

It's testimony to the quality of coffee our farmer partners supply, that we have been grateful to win numerous stars over the years.

The 2023 Awards have just been announced and we are completely overwhelmed to have received 16 Awards (including four 3 Star Awards). Even better, the awards represent a broad range of what we roast, from our Core range espressos to unusual single estate coffees from our Producer and Reserve ranges.

We are also incredibly proud to be listed in BCorps "Best For the World 2022 List", for our work in the community.
