All about us
(and you, and those amazing farmers).
Our happy community started back in 2016 when founders Amelia and Yosir realised all the amazing potential that can radiate from a single cup of coffee. Today, from our roastery and café in beautiful Ballina, New South Wales, we not only source, roast, sample, and brew, we put our heart and soul into ensuring our coffee Tastes Good and Feels Good….
Our team deliver Happy every day; and every time you chose OQ you also help deliver Good to amazing places.
Coffee That
Feels Good.
We’re creating a community of shared positivity by fostering respectful relationships with those that cultivate our Daily Happy; the passionate and skilful ethnic minority coffee farmers across Southeast Asia. OQ farmers are firmly at the top of the supply chain and are celebrated as the heart of our happy community. And we hold ourselves responsible through 8 key principles.
Personal Relationships
Actually knowing our farmers is the only way to ensure our coffees have zero exploitation in the supply chain
Farmers Set Their Price
Farmers set their own price, based on their unique requirements, so they can direct their own future.Purchase Harvests in Advance
We provide year on year purchasing guarantees meaning better cash flow and more security for OQ farmersSupport Ethnic Minority People
90% of our coffees are grown by ethnic minorities. Celebrating cultural diversity inspires our personal Daily Happy.Favour Small Holders
Working with small farms ensures traceability and supports diverse and organic agriculture.Exclusively South-East Asia
Southeast Asian coffees are delicious but underrepresented in the Aussie coffee industry. We’re here to change that.Directly Support Community Projects
We aim to understand each farmer’s needs as identified by them, not by us. We support projects directly to create greater impactOrganic as the Standard
All our coffees are organic. It’s better for the planet and better for us. Plus, less inputs on the farm means better economic viability for farmers
Coming from
a Good Place
We’re on a mission to show the world that Southeast Asian coffees are serious global contenders! We are Australia’s only specialty coffee roastery that sources 100% Southeast Asian green beans.
Southeast Asia offers terroir with diverse environmental, climatic, and geological conditions that deliver unique and delicious tasting coffees.
Our closest neighbours in Asia have so far been overlooked but the farmers we know are pioneering speciality coffee in their own backyards and we’re backing them all the way.
Tastes Good. Like really good!
This coffee has been tended, picked and roasted by those that really know their stuff. We’re not all that serious, but we’re serious about quality. Not only do we strive to honour the hard work that goes into growing and processing these exceptional beans but we’re also responsible for your Daily Happy, and that’s a job we’re seriously happy about.
So serious in fact, we sample ("cup") every batch before it heads
out the door. I mean someone's got to do it.

Goodness Gracious.
