"Renowned for unapologetically bold flavours and an unrivalled commitment to quality, Black Sheep Coffee are innovators in the space – by sourcing the first speciality-grade 100% Robusta coffee, they went against the market trends and became the 'Black Sheep' of the coffee world.
"The coffee shop group recently launched a brand-new lemonade category, with both classic and matcha-spiked options in flavour-packed combos like Lychee, Lavender, Passionfruit, and Peach.

They added: "Every drink can be levelled up with one of Black Sheep Coffee's signature boosters: think prebiotic fibre for gut health, collagen for that glow-up, brain-boosting nootropics, or a hit of CBD to help keep stress at bay. It's hydration, upgraded."
Alan Pruden-Barker, centre manager at Broughton, said: 'We know Black Sheep Coffee already has a strong following across the UK, so it's exciting to be able to bring the brand to our visitors across North Wales for the first time.
"It's a great addition to our line-up and we're pleased to offer another space for our shoppers to catch up with friends and family or simply take a moment for themselves to relax with a coffee.'

Thousands of lottery players mistakenly told they won millions in major error
Thousands of Norwegians were wrongly told they'd bagged life-changing sums in the lottery when in fact they'd only won as little as £9 after a huge blunder by the country's gambling company. Scores of people who took part in Friday's Eurojackpot thought they had become millionaires after a conversion mistake by the Norwegian operator, Norsk Tipping. The company mistakenly multiplied by 100, instead of dividing by 100, when converting the prize amounts from Euros to Norwegian kroner. It meant over 400,000 people who matched two main numbers and one Euro number were calculated to have won 1,262,000 kroner (£91,000), when the prize was only worth about £9. On the night, 19,000 people received push notifications, and 13,000 received SMS messages all saying they had won millions, Norwegian news site VG reports. The correct prize winnings were updated on Saturday evening and no one was paid incorrectly, the gambling company said. Norsk Tipping's CEO Tonje Sagstuen also apologised and resigned a day later. One mum-of-three recalled dancing with joy and crying when she was told she won 980,000 (71,000) kroner as part of a syndicate. Her hopes of a new life were dashed 20 minutes later when she got a text saying she'd won just 97 kroner (£11). She told VG: 'It felt like the world's steepest roller coaster. 'In that quarter of an hour, I used up two million kroner in my head. I was supposed to pay off my mortgage. 'I managed to call my dad and my oldest children are on vacation, and I was about to tip them a few kroner and say, 'Have fun, buy something nice.' Fortunately, I never got around to it.' Norsk Tipping's board met with the Ministry of Culture on Saturday, with the CEO Sagstuen shortly after. More Trending In a statement she accepted the mess up was a 'breach of trust', adding: 'I am terribly sorry that we have disappointed so many, and I understand that people are angry with us.' Minister Lubna Jaffery slapped down the gambling company, saying 'such mistakes should not happen'. The Eurojackpot is an alternative to Euromillions played in Germany, Spain, Italy, Norway and a string of other European countries. To win the jackpot, which starts at a minimum 10 million euros (£8.5 million) you need to match five main numbers and two euro numbers.

Lottery error sees thousands told they wrongly won huge sums
Lottery error sees thousands told they wrongly won huge sums The CEO of the gambling company has since apologised and resigned following the incident One customer said she received a notification saying she had received the equivalent of thousands of pounds in the lottery blunder Thousands of people in Norway have wrongly been told that they had won huge sums after receiving a notification from a state-owned gambling company in a lottery error. BBC reported that some people said they had received prize money the equivalent of thousands of pounds, but ended up only getting a fraction of the sum once the error had been fixed. According to BBC News, the gambling company - Norsk Tipping, refused to confirm the exact number of those impacted by the blunder, however it is believed that around "several thousand" people, who won prizes in the Eurojackpot, had been notified of incorrect amounts on Friday, June 27. The CEO of Norsk Tipping, Tonje Sagstuen, has since apologised and resigned following the incident. In a statement, the former CEO said that she was "terribly sorry" and that the "criticism is justified", adding that she had received messages from people who were planning on going on holiday or renovating their homes with the winning money. Germany sends the money to Norwegian gambling company in euros, before it is then converted to Norwegian kroner. For money-saving tips, sign up to our Money newsletter here . Article continues below According to BBC News, the error stemmed from the conversion rate from Eurocents to Norwegian kroner, which caused the prize amounts to be "excessively high". A media outlet in Norway reported that the amount had been multiplied by 100 rather than divided by 100. However, it was confirmed that the correct amounts had been updated on Saturday evening, June 28, and no incorrect pay-outs had been made, Norsk Tipping confirmed. One woman told Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK) that she had received a notification saying she had won 1.2 million kroner, which is the equivalent of around £87,000, before then receiving only a fraction of the money. On Saturday, the gambling company's board held an emergency meeting with Norway's ministry of culture, which administers the running of the company. Norsk Tipping has the exclusive right to deliver gaming services in the country, BBC reports. Norway's Minister of Culture and Equality Lubna Jaffery told NRK that "such mistakes should not happen". Following the meeting, Tonje Sagstuen resigned as the CEO - a position she had held since September 2023, having worked at Norsk Tipping since 2014. This isn't the first time the gambling company has come under fire, with "several serious errors" uncovered in recent months. Article continues below The company had "experienced a number of technical problems in the past year" and had been "heavily criticised" by the regulator and its customers, which the company said was "justified".

Long-awaited retail park cafe has arrived but was it worth the wait
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info It's been quite a wait for coffee fans. Signs have been suggesting Black Sheep Coffee were opening a cafe at Broughton shopping centre for some two years. But on Thursday the chain - with branches around the UK - finally flung open their doors. Judging by the response so far it's clear that it's set to be a success. Franchise owners - and husband and wife team - Haris Mirza and Saba Jamshed will run the cafe - in addition to one they operate in Preston. Hari, 41, told me their Preston one took a year to be as popular as this Flintshire one is now so the future looks positive. The North Wales Live Whatsapp community for top stories and breaking news is live now - here's how to sign up (Image: David Powell) Haris said what makes Black Sheep Coffee is different is its Robusta coffee naturally contains twice as much caffeine as normal Arabica coffee beans but in a good way. It's less acidic and it's more chocolatey and nutty so it's got the right notes. "It's what drove me to open this cafe," he says. "I was literally just a customer like anyone else. I would just go and buy a regular mocha and then I just ended up taking on the franchise. (Image: David Powell) "The Robusta coffee beans come from India and the equivalent of the Arabica beans - which is the Blue Volcano which is fruitier - come from Colombia. There are other coffees as well. "There are so many options to customise - different syrups like hazelnut. caramel....., and whipped cream." Haris says it's a friendly place where staff including him and his wife chat to customers. Customers order at the front, pay at the next counter and collect at the far end. (Image: David Powell) The orders are made on one of three touch screens, much like in McDonald's or M&S cafes. There are lots of bagels, sandwiches and croissants and the like. The meal deals looked good. I went for a Chicken & chorizo farmhouse sandwich, flapjack (in a plastic wrapping) and cappuccino. The drink is from their "Blue Volcano" range and I went for added caramel. It's quite strong and rich and exactly what it's difficult to make at home. There were many Matcha drinks too. Matcha means finely-ground powder of green tea which can be added to milk, water or another drink. While here I had one with lemonade. It tastes rather like Lilt or 7UP, from back in the day, without the fizziness. And while it looks somewhat unappetising it tastes sweetish and light, and with some ice, it was a refreshing pick me up on a warm and muggy day. (Image: Reach plc) The Chicken & chorizo sandwich was on fresh bread and with a cottage cheese filling. That made it lovely and moist and it was delicious. I would have preferred the flapjack not to be in wrapping and to be a bigger square on a plate from the counter. But it was soft and fruity and a lovely snack. The decor was unpretentious, like the Black Sheep Coffee cafe I'd been to in Cardiff. This one has exposed, ventilation ducts, faux distressed plank flooring, breeze blocks and corrugated metal on one wall. They give it an industrial look. (Image: David Powell) The grey artwork personalises this branch. Striking images of two racehorses presumably hurtling around the Roodee circuit (Chester Racecourse) and Roman Chester city walls are a nice choice. It's the first Black Sheep Coffee branch in North Wales - between Clogau and Lush at Broughton retail park. And with a relatively captive audience it should do well. The facts Location: Black Sheep Coffee, Broughton retail park, Flintshire CH4 0DE. Food: Tasty and fresh with imaginative coffees, shots and Matcha teas. Service: Friendly and efficient Atmosphere: Unfussy and relaxed. The bill: Chicken & chorizo farmhouse sandwich, cappuccino with caramel shot and fruit and seed flapjack: £9.38. Verdict: A little piece of cosmopolitan life from a household chain now in North Wales too.
