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.
