Coffee personalization
Click “Take Coffee Quiz” on their website and start your journey. The quiz is extensive, which points to how many options Bunafr makes available. When I was done, three bean options popped up:
- Sumatra – Solok Radjo
- Brazil – Riacho das Varas
- Ethiopia – Arsi Refisa
My next step on the website was “Green Coffee Subscriptions.” Each month they will send you curated a new micro-lot from one of their single origin coffee grower partners. They offer three journeys:
- Single Origin Journey – Single origin coffees are grown on a single farm or cooperative, which means they all taste different.
- Blends Journey – Each month you’ll receive a rotation of one of Bunafr’s signature blends. Espresso, Traditional Dark, or Fall Blend.
- Remarkable Journey – These are the most remarkable micro-lots of rare varietals (90+ scores).
After you try your choices, you can order different options the next month. Bunafr encourages members to explore the entire array of mix and match options.
Great coffee for you. A better deal for coffee farmers and the planet.
This from Anjani:
“Home coffee roasting can revolutionize the way each cup is personalized and consumed. And on top of that, it also starts to solve some deeply rooted problems of the coffee world – farmers’ inequity/poverty and the carbon footprint of coffee on the environment. Today, 80% of coffee farmers (25M farmer families) live below the poverty line because the coffee index gates the price paid to them, which is taken advantage of because farmers do not have the means to sell coffee directly to consumers. At Bunafr, our vision is to disrupt that practice by democratizing coffee roasting. “
Green beans have a long shelf life unlike roasted beans, so Bunafr only offers monthly subscription to reduce the cost and price for their customers and reduce the impact on the environment.
