The roaster's-choice subscription is back for winter

One surprise lot a fortnight, chosen the morning it's roasted, on your doorstep before the bag has time to breathe.

Subscribers see new lots first — sometimes before they reach the shop at all.

The simplest way to drink well is to stop choosing. Our roaster's-choice subscription is back for the winter season: we pick the coffee, roast it the same morning, and post it the same day — so what lands on your table is as fresh as anything we sell.

Every drop is a single origin we're genuinely excited about that fortnight. Sometimes it's a new arrival like the Guji Uraga; sometimes it's a tiny micro-lot we only had enough of for subscribers. You'll never get the same coffee twice in a season, and you'll taste places you'd never have ordered on purpose.

How it works

Pick a size, pick a cadence, and we handle the rest. Each bag arrives with the farm's story and tasting notes tucked inside, plus a brew suggestion from whoever roasted it. Going away? Skip a delivery in two taps. Drinking faster than expected? Bump to weekly. Cancel whenever — no email gauntlet, no hard feelings.

The best feedback we get isn't "I love this coffee." It's "I'd never have picked this, and now it's my favourite." — Dario, on roaster's choice

Subscribers also get the house-coffee price on anything else in the shop, first dibs on limited lots like the Cocoa Nib blend, and an open invitation to the Saturday cuppings at the roastery. It's the cheapest way into the good stuff.

Dario Marek founded the roastery in 2014 and still picks the subscription lots himself.
