1/4

Australian grown. Family grown.
Jack Murat is coffee made with pride.

Ask anyone who knows about coffee (which is everyone) and they’ll tell you to grow the best coffee beans you need to have the perfect conditions. Welcome to Mareeba.

Nestled between world heritage rainforests and the outback savannah, this is where Jack Murat coffee is grown, in rich volcanic soil that’s soaked with monsoonal rains and dried by glorious North Queensland sunshine.

The Murat family farms are ideally positioned at the point of highest elevation along the Great Dividing Range – about as close to paradise as you can get. Through real farmers, real work and real passion, this idyllic environment is captured in every bean.

2/4

Traceable, and cared for from paddock to cup.
Jack Murat is, and always will be, 100% Australian.

3/4

A long tradition.
A new future.

Contrary to belief, coffee is not a new crop in Australia. Coffee seeds arrived with the First Fleet, and over the next two centuries various attempts at cultivating an industry were made in northern New South Wales and parts of Queensland – especially around Mareeba where conditions are best. Today, this is where most of the country’s coffee harvest is produced.

What sets Australian coffee apart? Unlike most of the coffee growing world, our environment is clean and disease free. Here in our tropical Queensland section of the world’s bean belt, we have the ideal terroir and climate to grow coffee. At Jack Murat, these local conditions are balanced with global best practice, and a respect for the land that ensures it will benefit generations to come.
