Roaster's Choice Pre–Aged Single Origin

Ready To Brew

We’ll choose a ‘lucky’ bag of single origin that is close to or early in our recommended brewing window so you can start brewing right away.

Options

Variety: ???
Process:

Flavour: ...surprise!

Roast: Omni (filter + espresso)

We get it; sometimes you just need coffee that is ready to brew straight away, already in its peak flavour and acidity. This product is for you!


What you get

  • A bag of beans that are close to or within our recommended brewing window
  • Origin and producer selected by our roasting team from what’s available at the time
  • Similar qualities/price range (so no VS, sorry!)
  • Only whole beans
  • Returns for change of mind on this product won’t be accepted (please purchase only if you’re OK receiving any of our single origins)

If you have any origin or flavour profile requests, just add them as a note on checkout. We’ll do our best to match it; however, it’ll be subject to stock levels.


Why pre-aged beans?

When you buy any of our blend or single origins, we roast and ship them on the very same day. When you receive your beans a few days later, these are still ‘too fresh'—they haven’t yet reached our recommended brewing window (different for decaf, blends and single origin).

When you buy pre-aged beans, you can start brewing straight away, knowing that the coffee will be at its peak flavour and acidity development.

FAQs

Do you ship Australia-wide?

Yes! We deliver freshly roasted coffee beans anywhere in Australia, with fast dispatch and eco-friendly packaging.

Do you ship internationally?

We ship beans to select international countries.

Can I buy pre-ground coffee?

Yes. You’ll see our pre-ground options during checkout.

We offer pre-ground options for different methods:
- Ground for domestic espresso (home espresso machine)
- Ground for stovetop (Bialetti)
- Ground for AeroPress / Kalita / Cold Brew / Moccamaster / Plunger / French Press (immersion style)
- Ground for V60/Chemex (pour over style)

How is your coffee ethically sourced?

We source our coffee from small producers through responsible importing companies. 95% of our green coffee beans are supplied by Caravela Coffee, Cafe Imports, and Melbourne Coffee Merchants (certified B Corporations) plus Condesa Co Lab and more.

We transparently share all the information about each coffee lot (territory of origin, producer, variety, processing method, importer, quality grade) on each coffee page. This includes blend components for our espresso blends.

We take quality sourcing very seriously, so being fully transparent about our coffee is a way to honour everyone’s efforts along the production and gain the trust of ethical-minded consumers.

Learn more about our coffee and business philosophy.

Do you roast dark or light?

We roast our single origins using omni medium/light profiles. (This means you can use it for pour over and espresso brewing, no need to buy different bean bags with specific roast styles.)

We roast our espresso blends using darker profiles.

What is “specialty coffee”?

The definitions and references to specialty coffee are changing.

Historically, and as most people think of it these days, specialty coffee is Arabica beans that score over 80 in the old Specialty Coffee Association point scale. Today, the SCA refers to specialty coffee as “a coffee or coffee experience that is recognized for its distinctive attributes, resulting in a higher value within the marketplace.”

Can I subscribe?

Absolutely. Our coffee subscription lets you get your favourite beans (for filter and espresso, black or milk drinks) delivered regularly for free and with no lock-in periods.
