In this episode of the podcast, host Lee and Mark discuss 7 Seeds evolution from 'specialty coffee' to 'curated coffee,' reflecting on how the term 'specialty' has lost its meaning and why it no longer fits today's coffee landscape.

Mark shares his journey from the early 2000s starting with a small Melbourne cafe to founding iconic spots like St. Ali and 7 Seeds.

They delve into the challenges of opening a new cafe post-COVID and why transparency and a holistic approach to coffee and the consumer experience are more crucial than ever.
