It's great to have an Australian-grown option. So smooth, with no bitterness. On top of that I cannot fault the customer service. My go-to coffee company!
I've set up a subscription, which is the best way to get your beans. It's very cost effective and so easy to bring an order earlier or later. I recommend Grounded Drops to all my friends.
Love the Bunji coffee beans. Australian beans grown at Mareeba, and liked by every coffee snob that I know.
Best coffee in the world, coupled with the best service in the world. Thank you for looking after my coffee needs.

First time here?
Australian specialty coffee, roasted to order in NSW.
Grounded Drops started in a garage in southwest Sydney, roasting specialty coffee for tradies who didn't have time for a cafe stop. We discovered Japanese drip bag technology - real specialty coffee in a paper filter, ready in minutes - and never looked back.
Today we still roast in NSW, freshly to order, and pack by hand. Same care, same beans, same quirky little setup.

What customers say
"Flavour is lighter without being watery, really lovely coffee and I love how it's Aussie beans"
"I really like these beans and love that they’re grown in Australia"
"It’s great to have Australian grown options. A little bit milder in flavour, we tend to put a little more in our moka pot, but man is it worth it! So so smooth with no bitterness. ..."
"... Love having my well roasted decaff beans, ready for my breakfast coffee. Delish! ... When friends come over, out comes the plunger, I don't tell them they're drinking decaff and they can't tell difference. ..."

The start of each new day. <3

I'm a proud Aussie who always buys local, whenever possible. The Bunji Beans are 1) grown in Qld 2) roasted in NSW and 3) make delicious espressos (among others). The only way they could be better is if they were roasted in Adelaide (but I'm clearly biased. 🤣) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
-
Aussie coffee my way.
Love my Bunji Bean coffee. And I have converted some friends to the Bunji bean too -
Love our ongoing supply of delicious coffee. It’s consistently good and always fresh. Recently renovated the pantry and made sure there was a shelf dedicated to our coffee addiction.
-
Always Rich in flavour
-
We usually go the drip bags for ease but tried the beans (well ny 16 yr old son did). Great flavour and will be buying again.
-
I love the taste of the Bunji beans. Strong, but not bitter at all. Knowing it is grown and processed in Australia is also a big plus in knowing I'm helping support local Aussie companies.
-
I have tried several of the different coffees and haven’t gone wrong once. Try them you will love them.
-
I love this cofee love it love it
-
Wayfarer is the favourite, weather it be in drip bags or grounds for the coffee pot.
-
Love it helps with the long shifts
-
We love our grounded drops. But I need a grounded drops cup
-
Rock solid everyday latté option with a nice bit of grunt and, if you know what you’re doing, a lovely citrus tang aftertaste when pulling a double ristretto/magic. Also impressed with the subscription/delivery options which is both flexible and great value!
-
Your coffee hits the spot every day!
-
Goes down a treat when you don't want to overload on caffeine ❣️
-
Our dogs love the packaging our Wayfarer Grounder Drops coffee came in. They love it nearly as much as we love the Coffee inside. Great product, great service and great pricing.

Common questions
Frequently asked
What's the difference between air-roasted and drum-roasted?
Drum-roasting tumbles beans together with their chaff (the dry outer husk). The chaff burns and creates bitterness, acidity, and the harsh stomach feeling some coffees have. Air-roasting suspends the beans in hot air and removes the chaff during roasting - cleaner taste, smoother finish, less stomach upset.
Which grind should I pick?
Have a grinder? Choose Whole Beans - that includes machines with a grinder built in. Whole beans stay fresher too.
No grinder? Choose the grind for how you brew: Espresso for an espresso machine, Stovetop for a moka pot, Aeropress for an AeroPress, Filter for pour-over or drip machines, Cold Brew for cold brew, or Plunger for a French press.
How fresh are the beans?
Roasted, ground and packed to order at our facility in NSW, Australia - never warehoused. Most orders leave us within a couple of business days, a little longer in busy periods. We don't pre-grind - your grind happens on the day we pack.
Can I subscribe to beans?
Yes - pick the Subscribe option above. Pause, skip, swap blends, or cancel anytime from your account. 25% off and free shipping.
Why is Bunji more expensive than the others?
Bunji is small-batch Australian-grown coffee from Far North Queensland. Australian coffee production is tiny and the labour costs more than overseas origins - that's reflected in the price. You're drinking some of the rarest coffee in the world: coffee grown at home.
