What’s in a name? Everything.

Thistle & Gold wasn’t chosen. It revealed itself.

A thistle: wild, resilient, quietly powerful.
Gold: luminous, timeless, steeped in richness and warmth.

Together, they evoke a balance of earth and elegance.
Of heritage and intention.

The name was born from a simple moment, the goldfinch, drawn to its favorite flower, the thistle. But what began as a nod to nature became something more: a reflection of legacy. Our Scottish roots. Our Egyptian lineage. A union of bold contrasts.

Our logo captures this story in motion, a bird poised in descent, meeting the thistle mid-air. A moment of grace. A symbol of harmony.

Thistle & Gold is a celebration of craftsmanship, rooted in ritual and elevated by design.
It’s coffee with presence. Coffee that lingers.
