I remember thinking that Colombia was a long way away — and I know Dean will agree. It is. Just getting all the way to Monseratte from Perth is an absolute mission! So as I flew over Bogota (according to my in-flight entertainment) with another five hours still to go, plus two more internal flights, I finally grasped just how far I was going and how BIG Brazil is.
Our love of great take-away coffee is costing our environment dearly. Reuse is the most significant environmental impact we can make. Unsatisfied with the alternatives to replace disposable cups, the guys at KeepCup came to the rescue. The Five Senses branded KeepCup is a stylish and practical lidded commuter cup that replicates standard takeaway sizes.
Modelled by the team at Bench Espresso, this is Synesso work wear for the modern day barista. These shirts are manufactured in Downtown LA by American Apparel from 100% cotton and printed in Australia. Choose from three different designs, tailor-made for your barista personality.
Welcome to Five Senses, where coffee is not simply a beverage, but a work of art. Our job doesn’t end with securing precious cargoes of the best specialty coffee beans from the four corners of the earth. That’s a great start, which is then complemented by the skill of the Master Roaster and his ability to manipulate roast and blend profiles. The end result is the best possible coffee experience, a ‘masterpiece’ that appeals to your sense of smell, taste, touch and sound.
So take time, touch it, inhale deeply, enjoy our coffee.

As you leave the plane in Cairns, you’re immediately struck by the fact that you’re somewhere tropical. Rolling hills surround the airport covered in verdant greenery and the trudge to the baggage carousel offers the first hints of heat and humidity. Years ago, we coffee lovers would be preparing ourselves for the first pangs of withdrawal as we hit Cairns, knowing that the last good espresso was hundreds of kilometers behind us and all we were likely to find was stiff mountainous peaks of milk froth wobbling atop a thin, astringent dribble of espresso…

Richard Muhl wears a number of hats at Five Senses, he’s just as comfortable with the cap on backwards MacgGyver style as he is with the hair net on in a high tech laboratory. As the person that heads up the R&D Department and Technical services departments at Five Senses, he’s learnt to be versatile! Fuelled on Coca-Cola and backed by a can-do attitude, he’s tackled some mammoth jobs for us, none bigger than the recent installation of our 90 kilogram Geisen roaster. Geisen are our kind of company, starting with the drum from a 1937 Probat roaster they effectively allowed us to pour out our wish list of features and they made it happen.

Typically only found in Australia, we are however starting to see some Aussie-inspired ‘Flat Whites’ pop up in different specialty coffee destinations around the world, mostly as a novelty or talking point. The flat white is comparable to the American latte. Often served in a bowl or ceramic cup, the American latte is nearly an exact replica of what we call a flat white.
