Everything they use is sustainable right down to the ink and branded stickers.
In their perfectly formed range, there are 7 boxes and they offer weekly, fortnightly and monthly subscriptions or you can buy boxes ad-hoc too! They believe that everybody should have the opportunity to eat well, so until that happens they donate 50p from every box sale to The Trussell Trust which is the biggest supporter of food banks across the country.

Blue Coffee Box
Who doesn’t love coffee? Blue Coffee Box is a luxurious sustainable coffee subscription club that’s literally full of beans! All their coffee beans are ethically sourced from farmers and local cooperatives around the world using the Direct Trade model, which means farmers are paid 30% more than Fairtrade prices – and the beans are then lovingly hand-roasted by the UK’s best coffee roasters.
The subscription boxes arrive by post, are letterbox friendly and all their packaging is eco-friendly too! You can get them delivered to the happy couple fortnightly, monthly or every other month so depending on how much coffee they drink you can tailor it to suit them! Each box contains two full-sized EcoBags (fully compostable) of 100% pure arabica coffee that is curated to personal taste. They will receive different coffee every month, so each month it will be a lovely surprise.
