Thanks to everyone who came down and thank you especially to the roasters for sending their coffee.
Mecca, Rio, Single Origin and Seven Seeds are very much appreciated. I think on the evening the favourites were once again spread across the coffees with the surprisingly fruity coffee from Mecca and the Seven Seeds espresso blend vying for top spot.
You can watch the little video Seven Seeds made for us here. There is a write up from one attendee, food blogger Anthony Silverbrow. Lots of people were taking pictures – hopefully we’ll get hold of some and get them uploaded!
Here is a little timelapse I set up. For some reason the cups on the machine amuse me!
Taste of Australia from James Hoffmann on Vimeo.
You can also read up about the Taste of West Coast from the Irish guys who came to visit from The Other Black Stuff.
We’ll get a date sorted for Taste of Sweden as soon as we can – we can’t wait for that one! Hope to see you there.

Thanks for a great night James and Anette.
An interesting mix of coffees supplied from Downunder.
I am always surprised by the variety of flavours people get from their shot of espresso. I’d love to see pictures of the board at the end of the night – I forgot to check it!
Looking forward to Taste of Sweden.

glad it went well for you guys, and that the postal system didn’t let you down!
Glad also the coffee held up. Fruit is awesome!

Thanks James, I agree with Glenn it was a great evening. \i enjoyed the timelapse as well. I’d wondered why the laptop was up there.
