Floozy - Newcastle

 

 

Welcome to Floozy!

Floozy began in Newcastle, NSW in 2019 when Kmac started roasting coffee. What began as a small operation selling just microlot coffees quickly grew into a wholesale roastery supplying cafés across NSW, while staying closely connected to the people who drink the coffee every day.

Over time, her husband, Hal joined the business and Floozy evolved into a family-run operation. Together they’ve grown the roastery while keeping the same focus that started it all: thoughtful sourcing, quality roasting, and strong relationships with the cafés and communities they work with.

These days the Floozy team spends their time roasting, packing and brewing coffee from Floozy HQ in Newcastle West, working with producers, importers and café partners who care deeply about quality and sustainability.

Specialty coffee is rarely the work of just one business. It’s a chain of passionate people. From the producers growing the coffee, to the roasters developing the profiles, to the cafés serving it across the bar. Floozy sits somewhere in the middle of that chain, helping bring those coffees from farm to cup.

We’re proud to share coffees that are thoughtfully sourced, transparently traded and roasted to highlight the character of each origin."

Gilberto Landaverde

"Gilberto has spent more than 35 years producing coffee, with the last decade focused on specialty through his work with Caravela. What began as a way to support his family has grown into Finca La Peña in La Palma, Chalatenango, now run alongside his sons.

Sitting at 1,613 metres above sea level, the farm grows primarily Bourbon, supported by Pacamara and Pacas, under the shade of Cuje Chapemo trees. Harvests are processed using washed and honey methods, with careful fermentation and slow drying on raised beds.

Now in his seventies, Gilberto’s focus is on plant renewal and passing his knowledge on to the next generation, with consistency and care at the centre of everything he does."

Chelechele

"Chelchele is a small micro-region within Gedeb, part of Ethiopia’s renowned Yirgacheffe coffee growing area. Coffee here is grown by hundreds of smallholder farmers, most tending small garden plots around their homes at elevations reaching around 2,000 metres above sea level. The combination of high altitude, fertile red soils and traditional heirloom varieties produces coffees known for their aromatic intensity and clarity in the cup.

During harvest, ripe cherries are hand-picked and delivered to the Chelchele washing station. The coffee is sorted through flotation to remove lower density fruit before being depulped and fermented in clean water. After fermentation, the coffee is washed, soaked and dried slowly as parchment before being transported to Addis Ababa for final milling and export.

Coffees from Chelchele are a classic expression of Yirgacheffe, showcasing the floral and vibrant character that has made the region one of the most celebrated in the world of specialty coffee."
