Tenant News: Zarraffa's Coffee

Coming to you with some news from one of DRM’s core tenants - Zarraffa’s Coffee.

In a nod to their specialty coffee credentials, the Brand was invited to compete in this year’s Roasters Jam, hosted by the Coffee Commune.

Competition was fierce and we’re pleased to reveal that Zarraffa’s Coffee placed 3rd overall.

Well done to Jeremy and Chris, from Zarraffa’s head office R&D Team, who worked with the Zarraffa’s Coffee Roastery to develop the entry roast.

WHAT IS ROASTERS JAM?

An annual invite-only competition showcasing the best coffee roasters in Queensland, Roasters Jam selects only five specialty coffee roasters to take part in the event, which was held on Tuesday, 8 February.

Each team was given a mystery coffee bean from International Coffee Traders, with two weeks to experiment and perfect a roast of the coffee.

Teams were then asked to present their roasting method, philosophy and samples of the roasted batch, as well as provide a traditional cupping for judging - all in front of a crowd of spectators.

The event was held at Coffee Commune - a dedicated world-class facility housing education programs, resources, expert speakers, tools and state of the art equipment for café and hospitality professionals, coffee enthusiasts, roasters, businesses, and suppliers.

UPPING THE SPECIALTY COFFEE CRED

Zarraffa’s Coffee’s participation in this event cements their place as a serious contender in the local specialty coffee scene and pays tribute to their stellar roasting skills. 

DRM congratulates the entire Zarraffa’s Coffee team!
