The Destination Plan is more about you choosing the specific type of coffee that you prefer and going from there. You can choose Bright & Aromatic beans, House Decaf, House Espresso or Rich & Chocolatey coffee selections. Once you’ve chosen the type of coffee you like the most you can then opt for either ground or whole beans.

If you go for the Bright & Aromatic selection then you’ll get beans from Leon Cortes, an area renowned for quality coffee. The House Decaf will see you receive beans produced by the Norandino cooperative in Peru, whilst the House Espresso will vary each month depending on the season. Finally, the Rich & Chocolatey variation features coffee beans grown on the Finca Altos de Erapuca farm in Honduras.

The Discovery Plan is all about variety with no two months featuring the same type of coffee. You can choose filtered whole beans, espresso ground beans, filtered ground or espresso whole bean variety of coffee. If you go for this package then you’ll travel the world one cup after the other.
