Startup of the Week - Rise
by Startacus Admin
Enjoy great coffee at home thanks to this startup, RISE - a subscription box for coffee lovers, from coffee lovers
For some of us, having a coffee isn't just about getting that caffeine fix - we properly love the stuff! And chances are that the lockdowns over the last year have helped many of us perfect our barista skills at home when grabbing a flat white at our fave local cafe was no longer an option. If that resonates with you, then our latest startup of the week will be right up your street.
RISE is a subscription box for coffee lovers, from coffee lovers.
Unlike other subscription boxes which often send out the same coffee each month, this one is all about variety and fully opening users up to the world of coffee that’s out there.
Each month, subscribers receive two different bags of speciality coffee (bean or ground) from independent roasters around the UK, as well as an extra tasty treat, again from an artisan or independent producer. In addition, there’ll be info on that particular month’s coffee - its origins, background and even some recipes, to help you fully get the most out of every bag.
The startup, which incidentally started during lockdown, is on a mission to be a fully sustainable and ethically-minded business so that is at the forefront when they are selecting coffees each month.
There are lots of subscription options available so you’ll find something to suit - whether that’s on a monthly, bi-monthly or annual basis. They also offer a one-off box which can be perfect if you want to buy it as a gift. And should you be mindful of your caffeine intake, they have a decaf option which would suit perfectly!
Let’s face it - instant coffee just doesn’t cut it so if you fancy something quite a lot better, this is a pretty great option!
