The original Jasper Coffee store, on the notorious Smith Street in Collingwood Melbourne, opened way back in 1989, long before artisan coffee meant anything to most people. Founders Merilyn and Wells came from an art background and were determined to change the coffee world with a new approach to sourcing unique and interesting coffees, raising the taste standards to that of gourmet food and delicate wines.
Each blend of Jasper Coffee is a flavourful work of art, crafted with a unique narrative and taste profile, designed to enhance a mood or moment in time. The single origin selection is second to none with a wide range of coffees to explore, all with a distinct characteristic brought out by varietal, terroir and roasting profile.
Family legacy thrives as Jasper, the son of our founders Merilyn and Wells, has recently taken the helm of the business. He, together with his partner Zoe and their son Felix, carry forward the tradition into a promising future.

LEADING THE WAY IN SUSTAINABLE & FAIR TRADE PRACTICES
Along the journey Jasper Coffee has continuously pushed the boundaries of sustainability. By introducing Fairtrade to the Australian coffee scene, creating the first organic certified, carbon neutral coffee company, becoming the first B corp coffee roaster and developing the first completely compostable take away cup, Jasper Coffee have led the market.
Saying the word ‘sustainable’ is not enough, Jasper Coffee acts on that promise at every step.
At the end of the day coffee is not made by one person alone, it is the work of thousands of people across the globe that allow us to indulge in a morning moment of calm.
Jasper Coffee has a mission to elevate the growers, having deep personal connections to the people that produce our coffees, and they do everything to ensure the supply chain elevates people to have better, more sustainable lives through coffee.
Jasper Coffee’s promise is to bring you consistently incredible coffees worth exploring with a foundation of sustainability and humanity in every cup.
