About – Our story

Built on craft. Driven by connection. Inspired by legacy.

Deluca Coffee was born from precision, curiosity, and a belief that great coffee connects people.

Today, Deluca Coffee roasts in Marrickville, at the creative heart of Sydney’s food and drink culture. We partner with cafes across the city, source coffee with transparency and respect, and continue to push for consistency and excellence in everything we do.

In 2020, we moved into our purpose built Marrickville facility, designed to reflect who we are and what we stand for. When planning the space, our founder asked one question. If I were the best roaster in the country, what would my ideal roasting facility look like?

Our goal was simple. Attract and inspire the best talent. So we built a space the best talent would want to work in. With Probat and Diedrich roasters, green silos, and automated packing systems, the facility ensures that work which does not influence quality is handled by machines. That leaves our people to focus on what truly matters, the craft of roasting.

To us, coffee is not just a product. It is a daily act of generosity. A ritual that brings people together. A companion that offers certainty when you need comfort, and inspiration when you are ready for adventure.

Brewing perfection. Serving connection.

That is our story. And it is the reason we exist.

Built on craft

For us, craft means care. It is the quiet focus that happens every day in our roastery, behind the espresso bar, and at the cupping table. Every coffee is an opportunity to refine, repeat, and improve.

Craft is not about chasing novelty. It is about building something lasting. Coffee with consistency, clarity, and purpose. Comfort for the everyday, and discovery for those who enjoy the adventure of exploring new origins, new processes, and new flavours.

Driven by connection

Deluca was born in cafes, and that is where our heart remains. We exist to support baristas, cafe owners, and hospitality professionals who share our respect for craft and service.

From training and calibration to shared cuppings and community events, we are here to build relationships that last, because great coffee is only as good as the people behind it. We see connection as a responsibility, which means being present, being useful, and helping our partners succeed in the real day to day. When our community grows in skill, confidence, and pride, the entire coffee experience for their customers grows with it.

Inspired by Legacy

Our story began as a family one. Our founder was born into coffee, raised in his fathers cafe, and learned early what it means to serve people with care and consistency. The sense of hospitality, respect, and pride that he brought to every cup still guides us today.

We honour that legacy by investing in the next generation of coffee professionals, creating pathways from barista to roaster, technician, trainer, and beyond.

Deluca is now a team of roasters, trainers, and service professionals united by one purpose: to pursue quality and connection through every cup we serve.

Our Values

Craft

We care deeply about the process. Every roast, every extraction, and every interaction is a reflection of our standards. Craft means doing the work properly, with intention and consistency, every single time.

Connection

Coffee is about people. From producers at origin to the baristas behind the bar, connection is what gives our work meaning. We build relationships based on trust, respect, and genuine hospitality.

Care

Care shows up in the details - in the way we source, roast, and serve. It’s how we treat each other, our customers, and our coffee. When care leads, quality follows.

Consistency

Consistency is our discipline. It’s what makes great coffee repeatable and dependable. We measure, taste, adjust, and do it again - not because it’s easy, but because it matters to us.

Curiosity

We keep learning. Curiosity keeps us open to new ideas, better methods, and different perspectives. It is how we improve and evolve, and why this craft still inspires us after almost 30 years of chasing those God in a cup moments.

Legacy

We were built on family, and that spirit still drives us. We honour where we came from by investing in the next generation of coffee professionals and creating careers that last.

Crafted For Adventure

Mother Nature is the ultimate adventure park, full of coastlines, forests, and open spaces that remind us to slow down, pay attention, and enjoy the world around us. Those same landscapes that fuel our love for discovery and adventure also shape the coffees we roast. Every origin tells its story through soil, altitude, climate, and the people who care for the plants.

Whatever your adventure looks like, there is a Deluca Coffee roasted to share your journey.

Exploring coffee is its own kind of adventure. Visiting producers, walking farms, tasting new varieties, and discovering the stories behind each harvest keep us connected to the land and the communities that depend on it. It is a constant reminder that great coffee begins long before it reaches our roastery.

That spirit of exploration sits at the heart of what we do. Our Sweet Spot blend is the anchor you can rely on, the familiar flavour that offers comfort and certainty. And for those who love discovery, we roast coffees that highlight the incredible diversity of Mother Nature, opening the door to new origins, new processes, and new flavours.
