Havana Coffee Works is a premier coffee roastery with deep roots in Wellington, New Zealand. Founded in 1989 by Geoff Marsland and Tim Rose, the brand was a pioneer in the New Zealand coffee scene, known for its vibrant Art Deco-inspired packaging and its commitment to ethical sourcing and hot-air roasting techniques. The brand has become synonymous with the capital city's rich cafe culture and is celebrated for its distinctive, full-bodied espresso and filter blends like the 'Super Deluxe'.

In 2018, Havana Coffee Works was acquired by Lion (formerly Lion Nathan), a major beverage company operating in New Zealand and Australia. Lion itself is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kirin Holdings, a Japanese multinational giant. Despite this change in corporate ownership, Havana continues its operations in Wellington, maintaining its roasting heritage and local brand identity while benefiting from the logistical and distribution scale provided by its parent company. Ground and packaged in New Zealand, the coffee represents a blend of local craftsmanship backed by international investment.
