Happy Easter! Instead of getting an easter basket, you’ll be getting an easter box filled with amazing coffees! We’ve got fan favorites coming from Wild Goose, Heartwood, The Grind, and Dark Ritual and some unique new coffees from our newest roasters Notion & Mad Priest! We’re so excited to have Notion and Mad Priest partnering with us to help bring you all amazing specialty coffees. The guys over at Notion are some of the friendliest people we’ve had a chance to work with and their coffees have been incredible to try via pour over. We’ve loved every single coffee we’ve had from them and we hope you do too! We’re also excited to have the fun and hilarious group over at Mad Priest become part of Dripbox! We love having the ability to work alongside roasters that are extremely skilled at what they do, but also have a great sense of humor. If you get a chance – check out their YouTube videos (one of which is a Pulp Fiction parody)!

What's in the box: February.
Love (and the smell of coffee) is in the air! Whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s day with someone special or enjoying the single life we’ll be shipping the best coffee to your door to keep ya’ll comfy and cozy. This month we’re shipping out a few of our favorites and you’ll be seeing more of Wild Goose in the mix! We’re especially excited to have Rising Star’s Damarli Estate in the lineup because the coffee from that farm was one of our absolute favorites when we first started drinking specialty coffee. While this is a new coffee with different flavor notes than we had in the past, we’re sure it’s going to be just as magnificent. Fun fact, Kallan went to the same undergraduate school as Damarli Estates owner’s son! One of the many reasons we love coffee is how it really puts into perspective how small the world actually is.
