Great question. We are a direct trade coffee start-up from Amsterdam. In this day and age to shake up the old 'n stupid coffee industry with its low-paid farmers, awful, burned beans and huge ecological footprint.

We have been selling fresh, lighter roasted quality coffee in subscription form since 2019. In addition to freshness & quality, our focus is on sustainability and impact. We know our coffee farmers and buy through direct trade, making sure they get a better price. We need you to help us though because more Wakuli drinkers equals more impact!

Coffee bought in bulk often contains defects that make the beans taste not so great. To mask this, they roast the coffee darker and actually burn them. That's where the really bitter taste comes from. We only buy the best beans and naturally roast them a bit lighter. This means that you have less of that really bitter aftertaste and the wonderful flavours of the coffee bean itself are well preserved! Also, it contains some health benefits. Win-win!

For the true connoisseur: we don't have a very light roast, but our roast falls into the category "omni-roast"

We currently have whole beans, espresso grind, filter grind or biodegradable coffee pods (Nespresso machine compatible). Wondering which kind you need?

• Pour over, french press, cafetière of filtermachine: filter grind
• Espresso machine: espresso grind
• Fully automatic machine or your own bean grinder: whole beans
• Nespresso machine: pods

Unfortunately, we do not (yet) have options for a Dolce Gusto or Senseo machine.

A bag of coffee (225 grams) is enough for about 25/30 cups of coffee, depending on the brewing method. You can choose to receive 1, 2, 3 or 4 deliveries per month.

• Wakuli Blend: €5.50 per delivery (225 grams)
• New Origin: €6.30 per delivery (225 grams)
• Spicy Robusta: €5.90 per delivery (225 grams)
• Wakuli pods: €17.60 per delivery (40 pods)

All prices include shipping costs.

Of course! You'll get your own account on my.wakuli.com. It's up to you to (temporarily) pause your coffee deliveries. This could be after the first delivery, or after the 142nd. Oh and before we forget, it’s always possible to request an extra emergency delivery, have your coffee delivered to a different address or try a new variety or different grind size.

That's the beauty of it, you don't. It fits through the mailbox. So you can play sports, go to work, walk the dogs, watch a movie under a blanket and pretend you're not at home or whatever you want to do and it'll still be delivered.

Yes, you can! Although you can always cancel your subscription, even after your first delivery, it is also possible to order a sample package first. Check wakulishop.com. You'll pay shipping costs though, whereas with a subscription, you don't.
