Scott Jones has been in the coffee game for over 3 decades. He’s the guy behind many of coffees top businesses.

Master roaster Scott Jones has worn a few hats. While working in accounting for a large multinational, Scott gave into a friend's suggestion that he move into coffee and hasn't looked back since. Having worked as a packer, roaster, delivery driver and book-keeper what drew him to coffee initially was the relationships that form over that brown magic.

Having been in the industry since 1986, Scott has seen Australia move from tea to filter coffee, to espresso and now to specialty coffee with an attention to unique origins and flavour profiles. Scott is now developing this further and looking at broader global markets, experimenting with cold brew techniques that remove the need for one of coffee's until now fundamental ingredients, hot water. 

During his 34 years in the coffee industry, Scott has built relationships around the world, in every corner of the trade. Farmers, supporters, distributors, manufacturers - you name it, he has the inside scoop. More than a list of contacts - its Scott’s gift to connect and care for others which had allowed for existing and new relationships to flourish. Scott time and again has introduced people to the coffee community, whilst building their skills, knowledge and taste.

What makes this dedication pay off is the light that Scott sees go on when people discover the flavour profiles in their coffee, what Scott describes as "taking them on a journey to understand what they're tasting." For as much as coffee has changed over the centuries - and now more rapidly with broadening technological innovation - “people remain the most important factor to enjoying a good coffee.”
