Lavender in Darwin

When did lavender first show up in Darwin cafes?
The earliest Darwin customer review about lavender that The Froth has is from 10 Sep 2026. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
How does The Froth count this?
A cafe counts for lavender from the first Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with new reviews or menus (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Darwin with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
