Ordering & Shipping
How fresh is the coffee?
Every bag is roasted to order. We don't roast until you buy, so your coffee is packed within days of leaving the roaster, not weeks or months like grocery-store coffee.
How long until my order ships?
Because we roast to order, coffee and tea ship within 1–3 business days of your purchase. You'll get a tracking number by email as soon as it's on its way.
How much is shipping?
Coffee and tea ship free to all US addresses, no minimum. International shipping is calculated at checkout by USPS based on your address. Merch (hats, mugs, apparel) ships from our print partner at a flat rate shown at checkout.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship worldwide. US orders of coffee and tea ship free; international rates and delivery times are shown at checkout. Any customs duties or import taxes are the responsibility of the recipient.
Why did my order arrive in two packages?
Coffee and tea ship from our roasting partner, while merch (hats, mugs, and apparel) is printed to order and ships separately from our print partner. If you order both, expect two shipments with separate tracking numbers.
Coffee Questions
Which grind should I choose?
Whole Bean – best for freshness if you have a grinder at home.
Standard – medium grind for drip machines, pour-over, and most automatic brewers.
Espresso – fine grind for espresso machines and Moka pots.
Coarse – for French press and cold brew.
What sizes are available?
Most coffees come in 12oz, 1lb, 2lb, 5lb, and 12lb bags. The bigger the bag, the lower the price per pound, so the 5lb and 12lb sizes are the best value for daily drinkers and offices.
Are the flavored coffees sweetened?
No. Our flavored coffees use all-natural flavoring on specialty-grade beans with no added sugar, calories, or artificial sweeteners. The flavor is in the aroma and taste, not in syrup.
What's the difference between a blend and a single origin?
A single origin comes from one country or region (like our Colombia, Ethiopia Natural, or Kenya) and shows off that place's distinct flavor. A blend combines coffees from several origins for a balanced, consistent cup, like our 6 Bean Blend, Cowboy Blend, or House Blend.
I'm not sure what to order. Where should I start?
Try a Sample Pack. Each one gives you six 2oz bags for $24.99, so you can taste our Best Sellers, Flavored Coffees, or Single Origin Favorites before committing to a full bag.
Do you have decaf?
Yes. Our Peru Decaf is a single origin medium roast with caramel and citrus notes, all the flavor without the caffeine.
Do you sell coffee pods?
Yes. We offer single-serve pods in our Original Roast blend (12 or 60 packs) plus single origin pods from Mexico, Peru, and Bali. Find them in the Specialty collection.
What is mushroom coffee?
Specialty-grade coffee infused with Lion's Mane, Cordyceps, and Reishi mushrooms. It tastes like coffee, not mushrooms, and is available in dark roast, medium roast, and instant.
How should I store my coffee?
Keep it in a sealed container away from heat, light, and moisture. Don't refrigerate or freeze it. For the best cup, use whole bean coffee within 3–4 weeks of the roast date and ground coffee within 2 weeks.
Tea
Is your tea loose leaf or bagged?
Loose leaf. You'll need an infuser or teapot. Most of our teas are good for multiple steepings.
Which teas are caffeine-free?
Our herbal blends: Peach Paradise, Apple Cider Rooibos, and Hibiscus Berry. Green teas (Jasmine, Moroccan Mint), black teas (Earl Grey, English Breakfast, Masala Chai), Hojicha, and Matcha all contain caffeine.
Returns & Support
What if my order arrives damaged or wrong?
Contact us right away through the Contact page with your order number and a photo. We'll make it right with a replacement or refund.
Can I return coffee or tea?
Because coffee and tea are perishable and roasted to order, we can't accept returns on opened or unopened food items. If there's a problem with your order, let us know and we'll take care of you.
Can I return merch?
Yes. Unworn, unused merch in original packaging can be returned within 30 days of delivery. See our Return & Refund Policy for details, then contact us to start a return.
Do you offer wholesale or bulk pricing?
Our 5lb and 12lb bags are the best per-pound value on the site. For offices, cafes, or events, reach out through the Contact page and we'll put together a quote.
