Proud Mary Coffee

About This Coffee

A seasonal blend combining washed Bourbon from the Pacas family in El Salvador, Roberto Monterroso’s lots from El Moito in Guatemala (noted for a syrupy body), and a naturally processed Heirloom from the Benti Nenka washing station in Guji, Ethiopia. Processes include both washed and natural. Tasting notes highlight sweet citrus, almond, and milk chocolate, and the coffee is framed for both espresso and filter brewing.

Proud Mary Coffee

Nolan and Shari Hirte opened Proud Mary in Collingwood in 2009. A trip along the American west coast had shown him what specialty coffee could be and he returned to Melbourne determined to bring that approach to a country that was, at the time, an espresso nation. Nolan first attended Cup of Excellence in 2011; since then, Proud Mary staff have served on international juries for over a decade. Proud Mary became one of Melbourne's first roasters to champion filter coffee and single-origin brewing. The roastery categorizes its offerings along a Mild-to-Wild spectrum. Their Ghost Rider blend, a natural-processed combination of Brazilian and Ethiopian coffees, is award-winning. A second roasting operation now runs from Portland, Oregon, supplying American wholesale accounts and retail customers with locally roasted beans.
