What's in the box: August.
Anyone else feel like August is the start of fall? Around this time of year we start getting excited for all the spookiness and fall vibes. Colorful trees, warm drinks, and soups are just around the corner and we can’t wait!
This month, you’ll find coffees from Wild Goose, Rising Star, Heartwood, and Commonplace Coffee. Subscribers will notice some new coffees from Rising Star and Heartwood, along with fan favorites from previous boxes making a comeback this month. Since some of our subscribers missed on on last month’s Wild Goose selections we’re showcasing the same coffees in our August box as the July box.

What's in the box: July.
Summer is in full swing and we’re ready to soak up all the sunshine and drink plenty of coffee. Thankfully we have the perfect coffees in store for these long summer days! Keep yourself “hydrated” during the summer heat by making iced coffee! *Pro Tip* use coffee to make iced coffee cubes and substitute these instead of ice so your coffee doesn’t get watered down!

What's in the box: June.
We’re officially half way through 2021 – can you believe it?! This year has taught us a lot about creating spaces that make us feel welcomed, loved, and happy. Having to stay home for extended periods of time dealing with the pandemic helped us shape home life into something we loved (even more since we’re both introverts). We took this time to really dive into the world of coffee and enjoy it to its fullest, while also making our home feel even homier. So now, mornings are spent sipping the amazing coffee from our roasters, soaking in some sunshine, and being grateful for the small things like finally nailing that coffee recipe you’ve been wanting to try.

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.
