Not a fan of the Melbourne roaster St Ali. It's local, but not a small roaster anymore - can find them in supermarkets. From all reports the owner sucks. Tried some beans before I found that out and they were 'meh'. So yeah, it's a no from me.
I rate Italo Disco, but the rest of their roasts are very much meh. Plus they're pricey af - I only buy from them during Black Friday sales, and three of the last four years they've got my order wrong (missing or incorrect items) and I've had to contact them to fix it. Sometimes more than once.
Yeahh haha not surprised. I remember they did shady sales tactics during covid when there were shortages of things like RATs - like spend over $100 to get a free box of tests coz they somehow had an oversupply. Bizarre
