My only regret
My only regret about subscribing and experiencing such fantastic coffee is that I can't go back to "normal" store bought coffee again. Damn!

Best thing I've bought for myself
All 3 coffees I got are absolutely amazing. Jan 2024: - The Kamwangi Peaberry had amazing floral notes and was quite tea-like. - The La Palme & El Tucan is probably in my top 3 coffees of all time! so much raspberry flavour, it's unbelievable, it's really nice to have a funky natural. - The Finca Anonal is a bit more laid back compared to the other two but still excellent. The flavour cards with suggested recipes are also a really great little addition, and I enjoyed trying something new in my v60 and aeropress routines. I can't wait to see what comes next month! 11/10 would recommend!

Subscriber feedback
A couple of our current subscribers were kind enough to leave feedback about the experience. Here’s what they had to say.
“Thanks for the awesome coffees this month, loved the Jaguara! You’ve kind of ruined Cape Town coffee for me; I now prefer what I make at home with Bluebird to what I can get at the majority of the coffee shops around town. Thanks and keep ‘em coming!”
– Matt J.
“After years of trying to make decent coffee at home, your magic beans have changed my life! Now, I don’t have to leave home or work to get a great cup – you’ve made it possible for a coffee-rookie to make a tasty coffee in his own kitchen! The packaging, the website, the coffee, it’s all just what this world needs.”
– Marc L.
“Timeous deliveries each month and absolutely delicious coffees which I love to share!”
– Andrew M.
“I love trying new coffees. And I love the variety from Bluebird!”
– Michael C.
“I love the ease of the subscription and supporting the communities involved.”
– Dave K.
