In a surprising turn of events, ALDI Australia’s Lazzio coffee range, roasted by Black Bag Roasters in Melbourne, has clinched the coveted title of Australia’s best coffee beans at the 2025 Golden Bean Australasia Awards. This victory marks the second consecutive year that ALDI has emerged triumphant, setting a new standard for excellence in the coffee industry.
Despite its humble origins as a budget supermarket coffee, the award-winning Lazzio range has garnered widespread acclaim for its exceptional quality and affordability, with prices starting at a mere 18 cents per cup. This remarkable feat underscores ALDI’s commitment to providing customers with a premium cafe experience at a fraction of the cost.
ALDI Australia’s Buying Director, Daniel Quinlan, expressed pride in the supermarket chain’s ability to deliver superior coffee beans that meet the discerning tastes of Aussie consumers. He emphasized that the win is a testament to ALDI’s unwavering dedication to consistency, quality, and value, resonating with coffee enthusiasts nationwide.
Over the past decade, ALDI has forged a successful partnership with Black Bag Roasters, resulting in the exponential growth of the Lazzio coffee range. From supplying a modest four tonnes of coffee beans in 2014 to a staggering 65 tonnes per week in 2024, the demand for Lazzio coffee has skyrocketed, cementing its status as a household favorite.
The Lazzio line-up boasts a diverse selection of seven distinct blends, ranging from medium and dark roast beans to single-origin varieties sourced from Brazil and Colombia. Additionally, the introduction of the premium Lazzio Luxe Blend Beans has further expanded the range, catering to a wider spectrum of coffee connoisseurs.
At the recent Golden Bean Awards, the Lazzio range clinched a total of eight medals, including two new additions that have captured the attention of coffee aficionados. The Lazzio Luxe Reserve Single-Origin Guatemala and Ethiopia Beans received top honors in their respective categories, showcasing the brand’s commitment to innovation and excellence.
With the upcoming launch of these highly anticipated blends on July 23, consumers will have the opportunity to experience firsthand the exceptional quality and rich flavors that have earned ALDI’s Lazzio coffee range critical acclaim.
ALDI’s continued success in the coffee industry serves as a testament to the brand’s unwavering commitment to quality, affordability, and customer satisfaction. By consistently delivering exceptional products that resonate with consumers, ALDI has solidified its position as a leading player in Australia’s competitive coffee market.
