Beyond the Brew

Hospitality upskilling and helping young people get a leg up? Sign us up, we said! We’re proud to be partnering with Scarf, who for years have been providing Hospo hands-on training, mentoring and work experience for youth with refugee or migrant backgrounds. They’re doing some awesome work and there’s many ways to support including their pop-up dinners.

We’re incredibly proud to be supporting Co-Ground and their social enterprise, Co-Ground Coffee. 100% of their profits support and fund education and livelihood programs in the Asia-Pacific (currently Vanuatu). We’ve been on-board since they started by donating 100% of their coffee and proving free Barista Training to the volunteer legends behind the machine. Support Co-Ground by simply grabbing a great brew!

Current location: 20 Chatham St, Prahran VIC

It’s not just supplying countries the coffee chain touches, so we also believe in supporting local grassroots initiatives in our own backyard – Australia.

Dear to our heart, Tiga Raja is the mill we own and operate in the northern Sumatran region of Simalungun. Intimate with the network of small producers we collect from and the mill owners we are partnering with, we are proud of this coffee and confident that it is some of the cleanest processed coffee to come out of Indonesia.

But it hasn’t been an easy journey…

For years now, we’ve championed the under-celebrated coffees of India.

There’s something about this country that gets under your skin and infuses you in a way that stays long after you’ve left its shores. Travelling through India in search of coffee, we caught glimpses of life surrounding the farms where the plight of girl children is dire. In a country dominated by a dowry system, the lives of these girls are often chronically disadvantaged. Commonly being seen as an economic disadvantage to the family, these children are sidelined, opportunities withheld from bright young minds.
