Redbrick - Canberra

 

Welcome to Redbrick! Our first feature out of the ACT. Redbrick sent me samples a few months ago and I was blown away! A bit random, but they've also just launched a toothpaste! For the baristas out there, it doesn't affect your palette so you can taste all day long. Check it out here

"Hello, we are redbrick. We are a roaster, wholesaler, and distributor of coffee and coffee things. For us coffee is more than just a drink, it’s a way that people connect. From the producers who grow our coffee to the people who drink it and everyone in between, coffee brings people together and we love being a part of that community. It allows us to share something we are passionate about as well as an opportunity to make a positive impact on the world."

" This coffee was produced by Andre Hakizimana and his wife Anathal Mukagwiza. Single farm micro-lots like this one are extremely rare in Rwanda, as most washing stations receive cherries from hundreds of small-scale farmers, making it nearly impossible to separate by a single farm or producer group.

Andre and Anathal own 1.3 hectares of organically farmed land, with over 3,000 coffee trees, producing approximately 16 tonnes of coffee per season. Andre is also a founding member (and former president) of the Dukunde Kawa Cooperative, which has multiple washing stations and a dry mill. This allows him to process smaller lots individually, while minimising costs and maintaining excellent quality.

" Fazenda Cerca de Pedra São Benedito is a passion project of Silvio Leite, a leader in the specialty coffee industry both in Brazil and globally. With over three decades of experience, including co-founding the Cup of Excellence (COE), Silvio is a friend and mentor to many, and working with him is a privilege. Silvio’s dream is to make the farm a model for producing specialty coffee sustainably, sharing this knowledge with growers who may not otherwise be able to afford it."
