Did you know that global coffee bean prices on average have jumped 21.6% over the past year.

We are raising our cup price by .50 cents. Why are we doing this?

In short, green beans are costing more because farms have struggled with bad weather and worker shortages due to the pandemic. Importing beans has also become more expensive due to difficulties in transportation.

For the most part, coffee roasters have worn the extra cost during 2021 but to remain sustainable into the future we must raise the price of our coffee.

If you know us and have followed our journey since day one, you'll know that we are completely transparent and honest in sharing our vulnerabilities.

We're working on ways we can minimise cost increases but at the same time we feel it's important to lead the way for other speciality coffee cafes to feel confident in knowing raising coffee prices is the right thing to do to ensure the whole speciality coffee chain remains sustainable.

Speciality coffee is difficult to grow and process well and that comes at a price but it's what we choose to serve and we're proud of that. You can be sure that every Extraction coffee bean is of the highest quality and the farmers, producers and green bean importers we work with are paid fairly and treated with the respect they deserve.

We hope you continue to support us in raising the awareness of speciality coffee in Logan City.
