Many of us have found ourselves staring at the shelf of coffees in a store trying to figure out which one to take home out of countless options, brands, and roasts.
Pick the wrong one and your mornings are ruined for at least a month.
I’ve suffered this fate many times.
What we should be doing is a little research before selecting the most important item on our grocery lists, and there’s a lot to take into consideration.
Obviously, you want something that tastes good, but it should be ethically sourced and produced.
Supporting local brands is more important than ever these days as we ride out the pandemic, and local artisanal coffee makers are also more likely to bring you quality, finely roasted offerings.
Having done this research, I’ve abandoned the coffee aisle in my local supermarket in favour of Terbodore Coffee Roasters.
Not only do they want to know where their beans are from, but they also want a lasting and personal relationship with the growers and harvesters of their roasts.
If you’re keen to toss those single-use plastic pods that can take up to 500 years to break down, you can opt for their 100% biodegradable, biobased pods guaranteed to degrade in 14 to 16 days.
There’s also the option of switching to beans, and if you really want to enjoy some hope, strength, honesty, and integrity with your brew, they’ve just released Terbodore Revival, a blend of Colombia Excelso, Uganda Bugisu, Ethiopia Djimmah and Brazil Santos components.
A percentage of each purchase of this delicious offering will be donated to local community initiatives:
To make it even easier to enjoy your new favourite local, ethically sourced, environmentally friendly, and inspiring coffee, Terbodore will deliver it right to your door, which means that you can abandon that shopping aisle completely.
See their online store to check out all of the coffees, merchandise, and other products that they have on offer.
You’ll also find pictures of their adorable Great Dane and mascot, Mac.
That alone is worth the visit.
