Rocket Surgery

Rocket Surgery is a medium roast blend from Obison Coffee Roasters. The maker lists tasting notes of chocolate, juicy apricot and citrus with a subtle nutty aftertone, and says it has enough body to cut through milk while keeping fruit for people who drink black coffee.

The apricot is what separates it from the other two blends we list: Wakey Wakey (medium roast, Brazilian and Colombian beans, milk chocolate, hazelnut and orange) and Coffee To A Knife Fight (medium dark roast, Indian and Costa Rican beans, malty with macadamia, honey and cherry). The maker says origins can change with seasonal offerings, so its page does not name the beans. It sells Rocket Surgery in 250g and 1kg, as whole beans or ground for espresso, moka and stovetop, filter and pour-over, French press, or AeroPress.

Made by Obison Coffee Roasters, a family business based in Busselton. The maker says it roasts every batch itself, by hand.

Seeing it in person

Obison serves coffee from a stall at Origins Market on West Street, Busselton (contact and about pages, checked 12 October 2026). The maker says its roasting happens off site, not at the market, and does not say where. Opening times are on the maker's site.

Delivery

Obison ships Australia-wide, processes orders on weekdays, and offers local pickup if you are in the Busselton area. It does not accept returns on beans once they have shipped (delivery and shipping policy, checked 12 October 2026).

Questions

Does it suit milk?
