"Padre Coffee, being a big family (with Melbourne, our wholesale partners and the Specialist Espresso team) means there is always something going on. I love being part of the wholesale team as I get to interact with so many gorgeous customers; this makes my day."

"To me, this coffee perfectly represents the reason why we do what we do, why all of us in the supply chain get out of bed each day and work hard to bring you an exceptional cup of coffee: it tastes good, and it does good."

"In the six years I’ve been with Padre, I have been given so many opportunities to expand my skill set alongside extremely talented and knowledgeable colleagues. We have a learning culture that focuses on training and development and it’s an encouraging environment to come to work in everyday."

"What we look for in wholesale partners is a high level of engagement, a passion for quality and integrity." 

⁠In our latest staff profile, we chat to Andrew - Sales Manager for Victoria - about why he loves his role, about what we look for in our wholesale partners and about our exciting plans for wholesale interstate expansion.⁠

We’re proud to announce the second edition of our Good Coffee Doing Good program. Together with our Colombian green bean partners Cofinet, we are thrilled to feature two outstanding coffees from producer Auricel Conde. Through sales of these coffees, we will raise funds to construct a new fermentation tank for Auricel’s farm, which will help Auricel and other local farmers to produce better coffees and improve their livelihoods.

"This amazing Indonesian is heavy on the blackcurrant, with lovely green apple acidity. It has jasmine on the nose, dark chocolate in the finish and a beautiful, soft buttery texture on the pallet." Andrew developed two recipes that highlight our Indonesian coffee perfectly for the warmer season. 

‘Coffee- you beautiful, delicate, rose petal flavoured thing you’! Here, Raaimi shares her recipes for brewing with our Indonesia Aceh Ribang Gayo - one recipe for filter, and one for espresso.

Gemma and Nick Watts moved to Torquay from the UK and bought King of the Castle cafe in Geelong earlier this year.

The Colombia Estrella was grown at the “La Ilusion” farm, its name hinting that this is no ordinary Colombian coffee! This fortnight's exclusive Fresh Crop content is created by Sarah Morris! She shares two recipes for brewing with our new La Ilusion coffee - one recipe for filter, and one for espresso.

Moon Rabbit is an environmentally progressive social enterprise cafe in Preston, who we have been partnered with since their launch in early 2018.

Monday October 5 marks the launch of their mobile café, aptly named “On the Hop”, which will be servicing the inner north! 

Recently we had the privilege of collaborating with Melbourne-based company Chai Addict on a new product for their range of chai concentrates.

We’re thrilled to announce that our first Good Coffee Doing Good campaign raised $5320.00 for the Long Miles Coffee x Trees for Kibira initiative! We couldn’t have done this without your support in purchasing the coffee and the merchandise in our Good Coffee Doing Good range.
