WHAT'S IN THE DRIFTAWAY TASTING KIT

The first delivery of all coffee subscriptions, the tasting kit has four single-origin coffees belonging to four distinct taste profiles. Through this kit, you’ll discover the unique tastes coffees can have based on where they are from & how they’ve been roasted. There’s something for everyone in the coffee subscription!.

1. FRUITY - Light Roast

Our Fruity Profile coffees come from East African countries like Ethiopia, Kenya etc. Our very first Fruity Profile coffee was Kenya Nyeri Gatomboya AA.

The Fruity profile has coffees with flavors that fall into three broad categories: fruity (citrus, stone fruit etc), floral notes (chamomile, jasmine etc) and sweet notes (honey, sugar).

2. CLASSIC - medium roast

The Classic Profile is modeled after the traditional "coffee" taste that many coffee drinkers have grown to love. When most people think of coffee, this is what they think of.

Classic coffees come from Central and South American countries like Brazil, Costa Rica.

Predominant flavor notes are nuts (walnut, roasted almond etc), sweets (toffee, brown sugar etc) and chocolates (dark chocolate, cocoa nibs etc).

3. BALANCED - light-medium roast

The Balanced Profile maintains origin characteristics along with roast flavors. Our Balanced coffees come from the countries as the Classic coffees but they have different tasting notes.

This profile has the greatest diversity in flavors - often featuring chocolate flavors with bright notes from perceived acidity. The quintessential Balanced coffee is one from Guatemala, where high altitudes create rich and complex flavors.

Typical flavors we strive for include chocolates (milk chocolate, caramel), sweets (vanilla, toffee) and citrus (grapefruit, lemon etc).

4. BOLD - medium-dark roast

The Bold Profile deliver a big body, rich flavors and clean finish. While we don’t roast as dark as traditional coffee roasters do, high-quality beans ensure a taste mix of a few origin characteristics with a bold flavor. It also makes for great espresso!

For the Bold Profile, we select coffees from all over the world, including Peru, Uganda and Papua New Guinea.

This profile has notes of chocolates (dark chocolate, cocoa etc.), sweets (caramel, maple syrup etc.) and other flavors (orange, raisin, pepper, etc.)

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Are the coffees whole bean or ground?

All of our coffees are whole bean. Coffee gets stale 15 minutes after grinding, so we don't offer ground coffee ... yet.

We do realize that many people do not have a coffee grinder at home - we'd highly recommend purchasing one (burr grinder if possible, or a blade grinder is still better than pre-ground coffee).

All that said, we are considering and trialing a few ground coffee options. Please contact us via the Help icon for a chance to be entered into an early trial of our ground coffee offering.

What brewers can I use with your coffees?

Is the packaging recyclable?

Yes, you can recycle the packaging with your home recycling.

Mailers can be recycled with paper or plastic recycling (mailers vary based on the size of each shipment). If you are receiving the poly mailers, we highly encourage you to reuse them.

Coffee pouches can be recycled with plastic recycling.

We are working on making our packaging compostable and/or biodegradable to minimize its impact on the environment.

What is the cost of shipping?

Are your coffee Fair Trade, Organic, RainForest Alliance certified?

Our sourcing policy is to strive to maintain as much traceability to the farmer as possible, and we try to support small farmers as much as we can.

We do have some Fair Trade coffees some times however our current selection does not include any Fair Trade or Organic beans. We've written about FT, organic and similar certifications on our blog Our Take on Fair Trade and while we try our best to get FT-certified coffees, we don't always think a certification is always possible for many of the smaller farmers we source from.

Our policy is to always work with importers that we know pay fair prices to the producers and farmers directly. We would love to source directly however we're currently not at a scale to be able to.

What is the difference between a Gift subscription and a Prepaid one?

The main difference between a Gift subscription and a Prepaid subscription is that the gift has a voucher. Though both subscriptions are for a pre-determined amount of time, the gift subscription starts whenever the voucher is redeemed. When a gift recipient redeems their voucher, they set up an account for themselves with their email and address.

Another difference is that Prepaid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of the term once they are completed. Gift subscriptions do not renew.

Finally, prepaid subscriptions are set up for half a year (26 weeks) rather than 6 months whereas Gift subscriptions are set up for 6 months, assuming 4 weeks every month (24 weeks).

To summarize, if you are buying for yourself and ready to commit for 6 months, get a Prepaid subscription and if you are buying for someone else, get a Gift subscription.

Who roasts the coffees?

Can I pick which coffees I want to buy, or do I have to get the Tasting Kit?

I’m allergic to nuts. Can I still drink these coffees?

Do you offer decaf?

Are your coffees flavored?

Can I request a specific coffee for my delivery?

Can I know what coffee is being shipped to me before it ships?

Sorry, we don't have the capability yet to let you know exactly what we are shipping before it ships, though we are working on that!

However, we will only ship you a coffee from the profiles you liked in your Taste Profile. And you can see the four coffees that we are roasting currently listed at whole bean coffee.

You can also request a specific one for any delivery from our coffees page. We do need to receive the request by 7 pm EST on Thursday so we can plan for it.

Are all orders 4 bags of coffee?

How do I cancel my account?

To cancel your account go to My Account and choose Cancel Subscription.

When filling out the form please be descriptive about what why you want to cancel. It helps us with our metrics and gives us tips on how to improve!

Prepaid plans can be canceled and refunded (pro-rated for # of deliveries shipped) within the first 30 days from purchase or renewal. After that, there's no refund but you can disable automatic renewals for prepaid plans from your account.

For Office Coffee cancellation requests, please email [email protected] for further assistance.

If I delay a shipment will I still get the right amount of orders?
