Profile: Byron Bay Coffee Company

Recently, my friend Julie visited Australia and came back with a half-pound of local coffee.  I love when friends lay these kinds of gifts on me and am all too happy to try them out.The coffee comes from the Byron Bay Coffee Company of Newrybar, New South Wales, Australia.  At first, I was skeptical, we just don't see that much Australian coffee in North America and there's usually a reason for that.  As it turns out, there isn't large-scale roasting in Australia and it's restricted to northern Queensland and northern NSW.
