Common questions

What is a good gift for a coffee lover?

A gift subscription from a speciality roaster is hard to beat: fresh coffee arrives over several months instead of a single bag. If they already have a favourite roaster, pick that roaster's gift option; if not, a rotating 'roaster's choice' plan lets them explore.

Can the recipient choose ground coffee or whole beans?

It depends on the roaster. Caravan lets the recipient choose ground or whole bean themselves; Climpson & Sons, Origin and Rave let you pick a grind when you buy. Each card below shows what the roaster's own listing states.

Do gift subscriptions renew automatically?

The prepaid gifts listed here run for a fixed number of months or deliveries. Origin, for example, states that its prepaid subscriptions expire automatically after the stated number of deliveries. Check the roaster's terms before you buy.

Why are there no prices on this page?

Roasters change prices often, so we link to each product page for the current cost rather than show figures that could go out of date.

Pair the gift with gear

A subscription lands even better with something to brew it in. These are the beginner-friendly picks from our recommended gear page, with links to Amazon UK.
