About us

Why First Fruits?

First Fruits are historically known as the best of the harvest. The bible talks about a Jewish feast where the first fruits offering needed to be given before any of the crop could be harvested.

In the New Testament, James 1:18 says; “Of His own will he brought us forth by the word of the truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of His creatures.”

First Fruits Coffee is built upon God as our foundation.

Owner and founder Dan Smith. He first developed a passion for coffee while still serving in the Army. Forced to retire from infantry due to back injuries, he worked in the club attached to the 6th Battalion Royal Australian Regiment, the beginning of his passion for coffee. When he entered the club he quickly took on the role of head barista, serving about 16kg per week. By the time he left a year later he had become assistant manager, the club now serving 40-50kg of coffee a week as well as craft beers and a selection of foods.
