Brunswick Blend
A blend of coffees from Colombia, Brazil and Ethiopia.
Curator’s note
Jeremy Creighton's ad agency, Passport, sat on the same South Yarra street as Ed Moffatt's Melbourne cafe, and when Creighton moved to California he ran a Friday cart in the agency's Newport Beach office, pouring free flat whites until neighbors knocked on his window every morning. Moffatt followed in early 2016 to open the roastery, which moved to this Zaferia building on December 18, 2022.
The Coffee
The house espresso is the Brunswick Blend of Colombia, Brazil and Ethiopia, made to be silky enough to sip on its own and structured enough to cut through milk, and the single-origin shelf runs from classic profiles to experimental microlots. Gjusta, Gracias Madre and Milligram buy the coffee wholesale, and the roastery trains baristas on site.

The Vibe
The Specialty Coffee Association's design platform picked the room up in 2023 for its functional transparent layout of roasting, brewing, cupping, and training: four jobs on one open floor with nothing walled off from the counter. They took the Zaferia building in December 2022 to get all four under one roof, and the layout is the argument.
