The Single Cup Club is a subscription box service that sends you 15 coffee K-cups per month in three different flavors. Every month the flavors vary. The coffee is all artisanal and made in small batches. The cups work in all Keurig makers (yes, even 2.0) and other single serve makers on the market.
My fiancé and I recently purchased an iCoffee Da Vinci single serve coffee maker. Best purchase of my life (writers drink a LOT of coffee). When I was offered a batch of artisan coffee to try out, I jumped at the chance. I already know the company is reputable because I tried out their tea club, Simple Loose Leaf, last month. Let me lead you through their latest coffee box and I’ll let you know how you can sign up with a coupon code too!
At the top of the article, you’ll see the box the cups come in. As you’ll notice in a minute, all the cups are nestled in their own little cubby holes inside to keep them from tumbling around. Everything arrived fresh and intact. I did have a little difficulty with shipping, meaning the first box they shipped me didn’t arrive. However, I notified the head of the club and they sent me another box immediately - impeccable customer service skills.
Here’s the inside of the box with all the individual cups. As promised, there are three separate tastes from various roasters. The first is Door County Coffee & Tea Co.’s Almond Toffee flavor. Second is Twisted Pine Coffee Roasters’ 100 percent Costa Rican. Third is CoffeeIcon Superstore’s Nantucket Island Blend. Let me break them down a little.
The Almond Toffee coffee is advertised to be a sweet and savory Arabica coffee flavored with roasted almonds and buttery toffee. I really don’t think it has a lot of sweetness to it, definitely not as high as the Starbucks flavored coffees I buy at the grocery store, but it has a hint of nutty buttery flavor that is pleasant.
The Costa Rican coffee says it’s picked, “from the volcanic hills in Central America’s famous Terrazu district.” It claims to have a clean finish and light floral aroma. Truthfully, I don’t think it’s anything to write home about. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good cup of coffee, but it isn’t anything special. I’ll drink it when I want a plain flavored coffee.
Last, but certainly not least, is the Nantucket Island Blend. This is absolutely my favorite coffee in the box. This surprised me because usually I love a dark roast and this is more of a medium roast with a smooth finish. It’s a blend of Central American coffees and it is absolutely delicious. It more than makes up for my lackluster response to the Costa Rican brew. I am only saddened by the fact that there are only five in the box. I’ll definitely be popping on the internet to buy more.
The Single Cup Club normally costs $15 a month for 15 cups of coffee. This is a competitive price for artisanal K-cups in today’s market and they give you the added bonus of trying new brands and flavors every month. If you sign up soon with the code BOX10, you can get your first box for $10. The club is absolutely worth it. Try it today and discover your new favorite coffees.
