# Australian Coffee Culture (ACC)

> Australian Coffee Culture (ACC) is a premium ready-to-drink (RTD) cold brew coffee brand whose beverages are made with 100% Australian-grown Bourbon Arabica coffee, with a slow steep cold brew process, a plant-based range, no added sugar, and full farm-to-can traceability from Mareeba, Far North Queensland.

ACC is based in Sydney, NSW (head office, not a retail store) and sells online direct-to-consumer, wholesale, and through distribution, with delivery Australia-wide. Founded by Shreya Gupta and Bjorn Halfmann, with roast development led by Gina Di Brita of Numero Uno Coffee Roasters. Partners: Skybury Farms (Mareeba growing partner), Numero Uno Coffee Roasters (roasting), and growAG.

Tasting notes describe flavour and aroma; they are not ingredient lists or allergen declarations. Refer to product pages and packaging for ingredients, allergens, nutrition, caffeine content, storage instructions, and shelf life.

## Brewing Method

Slow steep cold brew: Australian-grown Bourbon Arabica grounds are steeped in cold filtered water over an extended period, with no heat used during extraction. This produces a smoother, rounder coffee profile with natural sweetness and less bitterness. Every ACC product starts from this same base, creating a consistent flavour signature across the range.

## Bean Origin & Supply Chain

- Coffee is 100% Australian-grown Bourbon Arabica, sourced from growers (including Skybury Farms) in the Mareeba region, Far North Queensland.
- Growing conditions: subtropical climate, shade-grown cultivation, slow ripening.
- Roasted locally in Australia by Numero Uno Coffee Roasters, under Gina Di Brita.
- Supply chain model: farm to can, with traceability from origin through roasting to finished product — a shorter, more transparent alternative to imported coffee models.
- Partner network: ACC also partners with growAG, supporting connections across Australia's grower network.

## Sustainability

- Packaging: recyclable aluminium cans.
- Sourcing: 100% Australian-grown coffee, no imported beans.
- Farming: shade-grown cultivation and responsible farm partnerships in Mareeba.
- Approach: local sourcing, local roasting, and transparent farm-to-can storytelling support regional communities and a lower-impact supply chain.
