Events

Thanks For The Memories, 2023!

With hundreds of cuppings, dozens of customer catch ups in and outside Melbourne (including our first ever trip to meet our Thai and Singaporean coffee communities), six sourcing trips to origin, five extremely fun Let’s Cup! events, two Private Collection Auctions and one very special visit from our Colombian supply partners, Pergamino, it’s fair to say 2023 kept us pretty busy!

Strong Women Behind A Strong Coffee

This beautiful coffee-table book is the work of Denyse K. Uwera, a multi-faceted content creator, based in Kigali, Rwanda, who uses photography and storytelling to broaden the expected narrative of her subject – the rural African woman.

Let’s Cup! Ethiopia

We adore tasting coffees from our roasting community and one of our favourite ways to do that is through our regular Let’s Cup! events. Get excited because we’re celebrating beautiful Ethiopia in an event held at our HQ in Brunswick East!

Shipment Update

As any roaster knows, planning ahead is key in a successful coffee program — and at MCM, we’re here to help you do just that! Along with some excellent in-stock options, we have an abundance of delicious, fresh-crop coffees on the water and landing over the next few months.

Supporting Strong Women

This year, we are excited to launch ‘Supporting Strong Women’, a campaign to celebrate and promote the incredible work of Rambagirakawa and generate support for the women and their communities. And we’re inviting you to join!

Updates From The Road: Brazil 2023

After a successful and rewarding trip to Brazil in September, we’re sharing insights and stories from what we learned on the road, along with more on what to expect from this year’s crop.

Spotlight on Ethiopia!

We’re delighted any time our Offer List is packed with delicious offerings from Ethiopia. As the birthplace of Arabica coffee, the country’s forests have the perfect conditions for coffee to thrive in, and its people a long history of cultivating the crop — and we love celebrating both any chance we get!
