About
I aspire to personally visit each farm for my coffee selection but lack the time and resources. Instead, I focus on carefully sourcing diverse coffees that align with Fair Trade principles. I roast them on a 1kg home roaster, adjusting techniques based on their origin, relying on traditional sensory methods. The roastery, with its jazz ambiance, enticing coffee aromas, and a chance to enjoy a flat white or espresso, is a popular gathering spot for family, friends, and our pets lounging outside.
