We always say that buying whole bean is the better option for coffee lovers like us. In fact, we’ve reviewed some of our favourite grinders and encourage you to have a read here, if you haven’t already got one. We encourage everyone to grind their coffee at home to increase the flexibility of options for drinking it. With a grinder you can brew your coffee multiple ways and really have fun experimenting! But the other key point relates to freshness - once a bean has been ground, oxygen starts to reach into the coffee bag, which means it goes stale quicker. The ground coffee you buy at the supermarket is not only much older and poorer quality than the coffee roasters sell, but it’s even less fresh due to the nature of it being pre-ground.

If you switch from pre ground supermarket coffee to whole bean specialty roasted coffee, you will be sure to be impressed with the difference, that's for sure.

We want to enhance your coffee experience, one ground coffee box at a time. 

With a RISE ground coffee box:

  • You’re in control of your brew type, quantity and frequency.
  • You can experience new coffee every 30 days. We feature two independent roasters every month. We split these accordingly, depending on how many bags you order.
  • We pick only the best beans from independent roasters all around the UK.
  • You get complete flexibility, and you can pause, delay or cancel your box anytime.

Not sure how many bags to order? Just decide how many cups you want to enjoy per day and use our simple guide: 

  • 1 cup a day? Order 2 bags a month
  • 2 cups a day? Order 4 bags a month or 2 bags a fortnight
  • 3 cups a day? Order 2 bags fortnightly
  • 4 cups a day? Order 2 bags weekly

Wondering which grind you should order? Let us help.

  • Whole Bean - Great if you have your own grinder or a bean-to-cup machine.
  • Ground Cafetiere - This is pre-ground and ready to go. Ideal for classic French presses or cafetieres.
  • Medium Ground - Perfect for pour over and filter coffee. Think: Chemex and V60 designs.
  • Fine Ground - Best for espresso machines or moka pots.

Whatever grind you choose, rest assured all of our coffee is of the highest quality, 100% Arabica specialty. It’s 84+ SCA scored, and is freshly roasted to order.

So incredibly refreshing to deal with a company where the founders are so involved. I’m a proper coffee snob and have received some seriously quality beans. They’re always very fresh / recently roasted.

Can’t recommend RISE enough.

I love getting my coffee box from Rise. It is exciting to discover what new coffees we have to try in each box - I love reading the story behind the roasters. Plus each box has a personalised note & everytime there is a new surprise from chocolate covered beans, protein balls or Tony's choc bar.

FAQs

We work closely with our roasting partners to ensure the coffee reaches you as quickly as possible after its roasting date. This is usually within 3-4 days, so we can guarantee it will smell and taste great. Specialty coffee should be left to settle for 6-10 days before drinking.

Each month we feature two new coffees from two different roasters. We really try to ensure that we take you on a journey of discovery with different origins that are in season with interesting and exciting flavour notes. The coffees are generally bold, balanced, smooth. All coffee is exceptionally high quality and tastes tested by RISE (we have regular cupping sessions, a head roaster who gives his approval, a taste test panel of subscribers and Ben and Alice give the final go ahead!)

All coffees are great for filter or espresso (omni roasted) and work in your V60, cafetiere, chemex, espresso machine and more!

Every month we feature two different coffees from two different roasters. The coffee is usually a mix of medium to medium dark coffee and suitable for espresso based drinks as well as filter. All coffee is 'omni roasted' which means it has been roasted to suit both methods. Ben is a filter coffee drinker and Alice is an espresso drinker, so we both give our approval that it works before it goes into the RISE box!

Your coffee will come in its original packaging from our coffee partners. At RISE coffee box we are all about showcasing our roasting partners, their stories and the beans they roast. This also means we don’t re-bag the coffee, keeping it fresh and allowing us to be more sustainable with our packaging. Our RISE box is made from reused materials and is recyclable.

We aim for all deliveries to be received within 3-5 working days however we generally ship same day or next with a 48 hour courier. This can be slightly longer around busy festive seasons or bank holidays.

Whatever you like! You can order whole bean coffee or ground coffee from us. We recommend ordering whole beans as this maintains the freshness of the beans and flavour. If you don’t have a grinder, select ‘ground’ and we’ll send it ready for you to use in your cafetiere or plunger. Check out our blog post on which option is best to order for you.

Alice and Ben have set up the Friendly Coffee Fund to give back 1% of all sales to help eradicate child labour in coffee farming communities. Our first project is in Uganda where so far we have enrolled children in nearly 3000 days of school!
