Jack Murat No.27, Natural - Australia

This is the first time Mecca Coffee are shining a light on coffee grown right here in Australia,  a bold and ambitious undertaking they are proud to support.

In 1929, 16-year-old Hymet Murat, affectionately known as Jack, immigrated to Far North Queensland in search of opportunity. Beginning as a woodcutter, he went on to acquire land and help shape the region’s agricultural industry. Today, the Murat family honours his legacy by growing Australian coffee on the very farm he established.

Over the past decade, the family team at Jack Murat has transformed an old tobacco plantation into a specialty coffee farm guided by curiosity, patience, and a long-term vision for Australian-grown coffee.

This release is the result of a collaboration almost a year in the making, spent tasting coffees, sharing ideas, and getting to know the team and the goals they’re working toward for the future of Australian coffee. In August 2025, the Mecca Coffee team visited the farm during harvest, walking the rows, cupping together, and deepening their understanding of the care and intention behind each lot.

They have selected a limited single-lot Catuai, naturally processed with anaerobic fermentation. Expect a wild, funky cup with layers of sweetness and depth, showing notes of red apple and hazelnut for those looking for a reliable go-to and comforting start to their routine.
