Base Range Subscription
Perfect for: Anyone who wants discovering new coffees to feel easy, not overwhelming.
Expect: Comforting chocolate sweetness, softer fruit flavours and coffees that work beautifully black or with milk.
A rotating subscription of smooth, balanced coffees, carefully chosen from our Base Range. The coffees may change throughout the year, but every bag is selected to bring the same balanced, approachable flavour profile you know and love.
Suitable for all brewing methods but best suited for metal filter methods such as espresso, french press and stove top.
What is the Base Range?
Our Base Range isn't about playing it safe. It's about celebrating coffees that are beautifully balanced. Chosen for their balance, sweetness and versatility, these are the coffees we reach for day after day. They're smooth enough to enjoy black, rich enough to pair beautifully with milk and approachable enough that you never need to second-guess your choice.
It's where we recommend most people begin their journey with specialty coffee—and where many choose to stay.
What coffees will I receive?
Every delivery includes a coffee from our Base Range, giving you the chance to discover new producers, origins and harvests throughout the year while staying within a flavour profile you already know you'll enjoy.
Expect comforting chocolate sweetness, softer fruit flavours and a rounded acidity that brings balance rather than sharpness. Whether you're brewing espresso, French press, AeroPress or stovetop, each coffee is selected because it's the sort you'll happily finish the bag of before looking forward to the next one.

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.
