Spotlight on Melbourne's specialty coffee scene
About this episode
To celebrate the World Barista Championship taking place at Melbourne International Coffee Expo next week, we're turning the spotlight on this highly influential coffee city to explore the past, present and future of Melbourne's specialty coffee scene.
In conversations with Ross Quail, Sales Director for Asia Pacific, Hemro International, Mark Dundon, Co-owner, Seven Seeds, and Sean Edwards, Founder, Cafe Culture magazine and the Golden Bean awards, we explore how Melbourne's coffee landscape has evolved over the last 20 years, how the city's culinary scene played an important role in the growth of cafe culture, and why Melbourne continues to inspire coffee businesses around the world today.
Credits music: "Love & Distance" by Hollie Rogers, feat. Jamie Lawson and Robben Ford in collaboration with The Coffee Music Project
