Latest update: Join our three reviewers for an exploration of the intersection between Fair Trade certification and coffee quality – and, of course, a review of some Fair Trade coffees from around Australia. Learn about syphon coffee brewing from a Japanese champion.
News: The Specialty Coffee Association of Europe’s championships are taking place at the moment. At the time of writing, Erin Sampson and Kirby Berlin have done Australia proud in the World Latte Art and World Coffee in Good Spirits competitions. Best of luck to Ben Bicknell in the upcoming World Cup Tasters Championship!
Welcome! If you have come across this web page, chances are that you are interested in coffee. You might be a consumer or a roaster, a cafe owner or a restaurant critic. Whoever you are, this web site aims to provide you with a useful, independent guide to roasted coffee in Australia by conducting reviews with the following elements:
- a panel of reviewers with considerable exposure to quality coffee;
- blind coffee purchasing and tasting;
- ‘apples and apples’ comparisons of similar coffees.
Coffees that the reviewers enjoy will be identified, whilst coffees that the reviewers dislike will remain unidentified. Every month, the reviews conducted will be tied together into an article that will give you some background information on the particular group of coffees reviewed.
I hope that this web page will grow to be your first stop for information on roasted coffee in Australia and that along the way, I will be able to put Australia’s best coffee roasters in touch with the customers who will value their skills the most. I am interested in your feedback and your involvement in this project.
Luca Costanzo
