Best Coffee Clubs for Gift Giving

Bean Box doesn’t just allow gift memberships, they also have a vast selection of coffee gifts and packs to send to your recipient.

You don’t have to be a member or even create a membership as a gift to unlock the gourmet coffee gifts from Bean Box.

In their gift selections, you can choose from a Coffee of the Month Subscription, a four-pack tour of Seattle’s top roasters, a deluxe sampler (including 12 coffee samples), a dark coffee sampler, espresso sampler, and even gift certificates.

Bean Box by far has one of the most extensive gift giving selections from clubs out there. Even when you select a category of gift, you’ll spend plenty of time sifting through the options in each category and then customizing it.

For example, if you want to gift a Coffee of the Month subscription, you will first need to decide what type (i.e. choice, decaf, dark, medium, light, or espresso).

Want a deluxe sampler? You could pick the World Coffee Tour, which comes with 16 coffee samples, personal notes, tasting notes, and brewing tips.

A Few Details about this Club:

Bean Boxes and Coffee of the Month subscriptions start at $68 for three months.

Deluxe Samplers start at $68 for three months and as low as $79 for a single box.

Gift certificates come in increments of $25 and allow you to pick as much as $250 in value.

If you know a coffee explorer, Angels’ Cup could be the perfect gift to give.

Angels’ Cup is designed for the curious. Each month, your gift recipient will receive a fun, mysterious box of coffees to try — all designed for a blind taste test.

All of Angels’ Cup coffees are expertly curated and arrive within seven to 10 days of roasting for maximum freshness.

This club goes beyond just sending you some samples and giving you a few measly tasting notes. In fact, they give you access to their innovative tasting app, which teaches you how to taste. Any coffee lover would appreciate the gift of learning how to taste the coffee they love like a true aficionado.

Driftaway lets you select between their 7 oz and 11 oz bags and then you can select to have the coffee delivered  every two weeks or once a month for two months (if selecting to have it shipped every two weeks), three months, six months or 12 months.

Just like with normal subscriptions your gift recipient’s first box will be a tasting kit comprised of four 2oz bags of coffee – one bag from each of the  flavor profiles (fruity, classic, balanced, and bold).  The gift recipient can then go in and rate the coffees they received and future deliveries will be based on their taste profile.  However they can easily go in and change the coffees selected for shipment.  Emails are sent prior to each shipment reminding them that they can go in and make changes to the coffee selections.

Driftaway sources their beans from farmers around the world to bring a dynamic selection of single origin, freshly roasted(shipped within 12 hours of roasting) whole bean coffee to recipients of gift memberships.

You can choose to have all boxes sent to the gift recipient, have the first box sent to you to give to the recipient, or send an egift card.

If you select to have the shipments sent to the gift recipient, you will be able to let the person know who gifted them their subscription and enter a personal gift message to accompany the first box.

A Few Details about this Club:

Driftaway collects payment based on the number of shipments and the package size of the coffee you choose.  The three month subscription starts at $39 for a 7 oz bag shipped once a month and goes up to $375 for a full year of the 11 oz bags shipped every two weeks.

Clubs of America is the original gift of the month club — and they were designed specifically for gift-giving.

With the Clubs of America gift option, you can gift one to 12 months of gourmet coffee each month.

When you designate your order as a gift, you will give the recipient’s name and create a message.

Then, Clubs of America will mail out the letter before the first shipment — announcing to your recipient that they have a coffee of the month club headed their way.

After that, each shipment will include 1.5 pounds of gourmet coffee, which is split between two different coffee selections for the month. Your recipient will also receive the “Coffee Expeditions” newsletter, which provides them with in-depth information about the regions where the coffees were curated.

A Few Details about this Club:
