Buying Coffee Online Vs in Real Life

Let’s kick off with buying Coffee From a Supermarket

Buying coffee from a supermarket may seem easy, but there are never any tasters available for you to smell or try before you part with your hard earned cash – a certain negative when considering the pros and cons of buying coffee online Vs in real life. Without tasting the coffee first, you won’t know if it is for you. You could be spending your money on a bag of coffee that you aren’t going to drink. This big bag of coffee could end up becoming friends with the spices in the back of your cupboard; never to see the light of day again.

Physically visiting a supermarket may not be for you today either. You may not be up for leaving the warm cosiness of your house. If you are feeling a bit worse for wear after one too many at your best friends wedding last night, the last thing you want to do is crawl your way to the local supermarket like something out of The Walking Dead.

When you’ve finally made it to the supermarket, you’ve then got the decision of what coffee to buy. Let’s be honest; no one likes spending any length of time in the supermarket so you probably won’t have even looked at the coffee you’ve picked up.

You may also find that coffee from a supermarket isn’t as fresh as maybe you would have liked. Sometimes it’s difficult to know when it was roasted, or for how long it’s been sitting on the shelf for. For more information on this check out ‘The Shelf Life of Coffee’.

Coffee From a Roastery

At Two Chimps Coffee, we believe that fresh is best. We roast our coffee multiple times a week to ensure you get the freshest brew possible. Just check the back of our coffee bags to find the roast date and the name of the roaster!

We also only ever roast speciality Arabica coffee, which is like the VIP of the coffee world. We’re talking about hand-picked, carefully processed beans sourced from amazing places all across the coffee belt.

We also care about our farmers! We ethically source our raw beans and pay 20-130% more than the industry standard, ensuring they get a fair return for their hard work.

Lastly, if you’re in the beautiful Rutland area or just visiting, you can also drop by our roastery to pick up your beans in person (we’d be happy to grind them fresh for you, too!) This it’s a great chance to chat with us about our range of coffees and find the perfect one just for you!

Prefer to buy online? No worries, we have a website!

Buying coffee online has many awesome benefits when looking at the pros and cons of buying coffee online Vs in real life, and did you know it takes as little as seven clicks from start to check out on our site? How easy is that!

Plus, if you aren’t ready to commit to one flavour just yet, our 125g taster bags of coffee are an excellent way of sampling many coffees to find the one that hits the spot.

What’s more, our sample bags and 250g bags of coffee are sent in a large letter sized envelope which fits through a standard sized letterbox. You won’t even have to pause to receive your delivery – happy days!

Coffee Subscription Service

So, you’ve ordered a one-off bag of coffee, and now you can’t get enough of Two Chimps Coffee (woop). Well, let me introduce you to our coffee subscription.

With a coffee subscription with us, you are in full control. You choose the frequency of your subscription, the type of coffee, the weight and the grind size.

Upon creating an account with us, you will have even more control over your subscription. Going away while your coffee is due to be delivered? No worries. Just pause your subscription and then start it again when you’re back.

If you’re going away in the UK while your coffee delivery is due, change your delivery address and voila – Two Chimps Coffee on holiday. Just make sure you change it back after so your coffee doesn’t end up in the wrong hands.

You are never tied into a contract when you start your subscription. If the time comes to leave us, you can do so easily. We will miss you, however.

You will find our coffees change from time to time. We source our coffees from small farms and single estates within any given origin. Small farms often produce smaller, more unique lots and when it has all been drunk; it’s all gone. Never fear though guys, when we do change a coffee, we always replace it with one that is as equally delicious with similar tasting notes. It’s an awesome way of trying lots of coffees from lots of origins too!

If you’re looking at our coffees and can’t decide on a favourite, take a look at our mystery subscription. With each delivery, you will be sent a randomly selected bag of coffee. As before, just choose your weight, grind size and frequency, and we’ll do the rest.
