Explore Range Subscription
Perfect for: Curious coffee drinkers who love trying something a little different.
Expect: Brighter fruit flavours, floral aromas and expressive coffees that are often best enjoyed black
A rotating subscription for people who love discovering just how different coffee can taste. We'll choose from our Explore Range, introducing expressive, fruit-forward coffees that make every delivery feel like there's something new to discover.
Suitable for all brewing methods but best suited for paper filter methods such as V60, Filter or Aeropress.
What is the Explore Range?
If you enjoy discovering coffees that surprise you in the best way, our Explore Range is for you.
Here you'll find brighter fruit flavours, floral aromatics and more expressive coffees that showcase just how varied specialty coffee can be. Some come from innovative processing methods, others simply reflect the unique character of their origin, variety and producer. Every coffee is chosen because we think it's something worth experiencing.
What coffees will I receive?
We'll choose from our Explore Range, rotating between coffees that celebrate the more adventurous side of specialty coffee.
Expect juicy fruit flavours, floral aromatics and lively sweetness, with coffees often best suited to paper filter brewing methods such as V60, Chemex, Kalita or AeroPress. Some also make wonderfully vibrant espresso for anyone who enjoys a brighter cup.
Rather than chasing the unexpected for the sake of it, every coffee is selected because it has something exciting to share.

Packaging
Are your coffee bags compostable?
Our 250g coffee bags are made using compostable materials designed to break down in a well-managed home compost setup.
Our 1kg bags are currently recyclable LDPE4 plastic while we continue testing larger compostable alternatives durable enough for wholesale and larger-format coffee storage.
What if I don’t have a compost bin?
You’re definitely not alone. You can return your used bags to either our Roastery or Coffee Shop and we’ll make sure they’re properly processed through our waste partners. We know there’s currently no perfect packaging solution, but we’re committed to continually improving the systems and materials we use.
Can the bags be re-used?
Definitely. The zip-lock seals make them useful for storing everything from coffee and grains to snacks, cables or the random drawer bits everyone seems to accumulate somehow.
