Coffee Talk Guide:

What Is Australian Coffee? A Local Roaster’s Perspective

When people search for “Australian coffee,” they could mean a few different things:

  • Coffee grown on Australian soil.
  • Coffee roasted by local Australian businesses.
  • Or even the café culture we’re known for around the world.

As a small roastery based on the Great Ocean Road, here’s how we see it - and what we offer if you’re looking for something local, thoughtful, and fresh.

Is Coffee Grown in Australia?

Yes - but it’s rare.

A small number of dedicated farms in Far North Queensland and Northern New South Wales grow coffee right here in Australia. These producers work with unique growing conditions to create beans that are distinctly regional. While supply is limited, and Australian-grown coffee remains a niche part of the global market, it’s a genuine expression of local craft and care.

At Hello Coffee, we don’t currently stock Australian-grown beans. Instead, we focus on ethically sourced coffees from growing regions with deep farming heritage - places like Ethiopia, Colombia, and Indonesia. We roast them fresh here in Victoria, keeping everything else local: sourcing relationships, small-batch roasting, packing, and shipping.

So What Is Australian Coffee, Really?

To us, it’s less about where the bean grew, and more about how it’s treated once it gets here.

Australian coffee is:

  • Roasted fresh by local businesses who care about flavour and transparency.
  • Brewed with intention - whether it’s a flat white in a bustling café or a V60 on your kitchen bench.
  • Made to taste good without shortcuts, gimmicks, or stale stock sitting in a warehouse.

That’s what we do at Hello Coffee - and we’re proud to be part of a country that values quality over quantity when it comes to coffee.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is coffee grown in Australia?
Yes - in small quantities, mainly in Queensland and Northern NSW. It’s a niche product due to Australia’s climate and farming costs.

Where can I buy Australian-grown coffee beans?
Specialty retailers and direct-from-farm suppliers may stock limited batches. Hello Coffee does not currently offer Australian-grown beans.

What is considered “Australian coffee”?
Coffee roasted locally in Australia by independent producers. It often reflects our café culture: quality-focused and ethically minded.
