Chocolate and wild berry notes with layers of chocolate flavours from all the components, it gives a deep, satisfying sweetness which is elevated by caramel and pineapple notes from the Nicaragua coffee and a rounded berry fruit juicy acidity from the Ethiopian.
Hodson Blend was developed in recognition of the early days of Ozone Coffee when Jamie & Karen Hodson began roasting in the small surf town of New Plymouth, New Zealand. They founded the business on family values with a commitment to growing meaningful relationships at origin. This blend celebrates that original vision and our sourcing partners in Colombia, Ethiopia and Nicaragua.

25 YEARS OF OZONE 🎂✨
A quarter-century ago, in 1998, Ozone Coffee was born in the coastal surf town of Fitzroy, New Plymouth. Inspired by the coffee plantations they explored in San Salvador, founders Karen and Jamie Hodson began a remarkable journey. Over the years, we've expanded to London, opened numerous cafes and eateries, but most importantly, we've had the privilege of meeting incredible people and creating unforgettable coffee experiences.
To celebrate the occasion, we've designed special birthday labels for our Hodson Blend, a tribute to the late Jamie Hodson and the roots of Ozone Coffee. This blend encapsulates the essence of our founders and their early days, built on family values and meaningful relationships at coffee origins – principles we continue to uphold.
A massive thank you to everyone who has joined us on this incredible journey – our community, partners, and our dedicated team. We couldn't have done it without you.
