WHAT IS NO BUENO?

Coffee culture is evolving — No Bueno helps you lead the change, not follow it.
— Sim & Sisi

No Bueno is a new take on café culture — a rich, roasted espresso experience made entirely from rooibos, a naturally caffeine-free plant grown in the Cederberg mountains of South Africa.

Carefully cut, roasted, and ground to run through any espresso machine, No Bueno pours just like coffee — with crema, aroma, and depth — but without the caffeine jitters.

Made for baristas, loved by everyone

No Bueno is about creativity behind the bar. It gives baristas something fun to play with — a new base for signature drinks that delight customers who want something unexpected.
Whether it’s your first shot or your fiftieth, it’s impossible not to smile when you pull that rich, ruby crema.

The taste

No Bueno is smooth. Malty. Slightly sweet with roasted notes and a hint of earthiness. Think of it as the best parts of coffee and tea — combined into something completely new.

Our promise

No Bueno was born to bring joy, creativity, and bright energy to cafés.
It’s not just a caffeine-free option — it’s a whole new experience.
So go ahead: brew boldly. Serve differently.
