Which sustainable coffee subscription is best for you?

An essential part of many morning rituals, a cup of coffee has the power to turn our whole day around and with our sustainable coffee pods, it also has the power to change the planet. As our awareness about environmental sustainability grows, finding ways to make eco-friendly changes to your everyday habits can make all the difference to your morning. Our coffee pod subscription service gives you the opportunity to have ethically sourced coffee every day at an affordable price that doesn’t cost the earth.

If you’re curious about which coffee subscription is best for you, read on as we delve into the difference between the coffee blends we have available and how you can help reduce landfill waste one cup of coffee at a time.

About our sustainable coffee options

Our sustainable coffee pods are climate-neutral certified plastic-free, aluminium-free and fully compostable. After each use, once disposed of properly, each pod will break down into biomass, water and CO2 in a matter of weeks, making them a great sustainable alternative for your everyday caffeine fix. Offering five different blends of ethically sourced coffee that all come in Nespresso® compatible, compostable coffee pods, our coffee is available to subscribe to on a regular basis, so you can have a delicious cup of coffee at home every day. 

Our coffee subscription service allows you to save up to 10% on your favourite coffee blends, no matter how often you subscribe. The service offers complete flexibility so you have the option to skip or pause a delivery at any time or swap out your coffee blend of choice so that you get the exact coffee you want conveniently dropped off at your doorstep.

Which coffee blend should I subscribe to?

The type of coffee blend you choose to subscribe to is entirely down to personal taste preferences as each blend holds a varied taste profile. You may also choose to change the type of coffee pods you are subscribed to at any point, meaning you have the option to try every blend we have available. We offer 8 different coffee blends including, Italian espresso, Costa Rican, Guatemalan, Colombian and Italian espresso decaf.

If you’re looking for an authentic taste of Italy with your morning cup, this Italian espresso blend is perfect for you. Offering a bold and intense espresso, this blend of Arabica and Robusta beans gives a robust aroma with depth, body and vibrancy leaving a golden brown crema. Each Italian espresso pod promises a rich and satisfying experience and is ideal for those who appreciate a strong and full-bodied espresso.

Whether you’re looking to elevate your mornings with the authentic taste or an afternoon pick me up, these Italian espresso capsules bring the true spirit of Italian coffee to your day.

Packed with the same rich flavour as our Italian espresso but without the caffeine, our Espresso decaf blend offers a delicate, smooth espresso that boasts notes of caramel, nuts and citrus. This single-origin blend beautifully balances body and acidity without the caffeine to give an intense and sweet flavour. This blend is made for those who love the complex taste of espresso but prefer a caffeine-free option, ideal for an after-dinner palate cleanser or those craving a late-night coffee without the risk of a sleepless night.

If you prefer a coffee blend that is sweeter with low acidity, then our Guatemalan pods are the one for you. Grown in the highlands of Guatemala, this exceptional blend captures the distinctive qualities of the region, offering a delicate flavour with notes of almond, hazelnut and chocolate. The perfect way to start your day, our Guatemalan single-origin blend provides a bold chocolate feel with an undertone of sweet caramel to make a delightful brew every time.

For a vibrant, complex coffee experience, our Costa Rican blend offers a lightly roasted coffee with notes of toasted barley, spices and black walnut. Perfectly balancing acidity and a complex flavour profile, this blend has been ethically sourced from the mountainous regions of Costa Rica to bring a consistently delicious brew to your everyday. Offering a bright and lively flavour, this blend is a refreshing way to start your day or to brighten up your afternoon caffeine pick-me-up.

Indulge in the rich heritage and complex flavours of Colombian coffee with every cup of our single-origin Colombian blend, conveniently delivered in eco-friendly capsules. Offering a crisp flavour with notes of lemon, grapefruit and caramel this wonderfully vibrant coffee has a medium-light body with floral aromas and a clean finish. Perfectly balancing acidity and rich flavour, this blend is perfect for those who are looking for a light and refreshing coffee that is made from high-quality beans for an aromatic and full-bodied morning brew.

Delivering a rich and smooth profile, with subtle fruity hints and a pleasant acidity level, our Arabica compostable coffee pods provide a decadent drinking experience. Enjoy a bold tasting coffee with a contrastingly silky finish, with each pod made from premium Arabica beans. Beyond the great taste, these coffee pods also offer a quick, fuss-free way to get your caffeine fix, making them the perfect choice for busy mornings. Sustainably sourced from farms that treat their workers fairly, enjoy a delicious brew, confident in the knowledge that it has been responsibly acquired. 

Crafted to bring you a bold and intense flavour, this southern Italian espresso blend is perfect for those who love a robust and full-bodied coffee. Ideal for savouring, our Gusto espresso blend reveals deep chocolate notes and a rich, velvety crema, designed to bring you a peaceful moment of bliss whilst you sip. Fuss-free and made from compostable packaging, enjoy our Gusto pods day after day with a coffee subscription from The Eden Project.

A long-pull version of our espresso decaf, the lungo is designed to be enjoyed as a double shot, without the caffeine. Offering a well-balanced taste of caramel with a nutty profile, our Lungo decaf is a deliciously smooth blend, perfect for sipping and savouring at any time of the day. The decaffeination process preserves the rich flavours of the coffee, so you can be sure you won’t miss out on taste.

How often should I subscribe?

Our sustainable coffee pod subscription service is available to subscribe to every 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 weeks. How often you choose to subscribe to this service will depend on how much coffee you regularly consume. Each box of sustainable coffee pods holds 100 capsules, therefore you need to consider how many people there are in your household and how often each person has a cup of coffee to then determine how frequently you should subscribe.

If you live alone and have on average 2 cups of coffee per day, then the appropriate length of time to subscribe would be every 6 weeks, so that by the time you are coming to the end of your box, there will be a fresh pack of sustainable coffee pods delivered to your door. Using this logic, if there are 2 people in your household consuming 2 cups of coffee daily, we would recommend subscribing every 2 to 4 weeks to ensure you never run out of your favourite blend. Don’t worry too much about getting this right the first time, however, as you will be in full control of your subscription, enabling you to change the frequency, skip or pause your plan, or swap to try a different blend at any time!
