Our packaging has a premium design that depicts luxury and quality, incorporating Indigenous cultural vibrancy, Indian tropical colours, and biodiversity. The packaging is installed with a unique one-way degassing valve to eliminate carbon emitted by the roasted beans and restricting the outside gasses to contaminate the beans inside the package. This allows for the coffee to maintain its fresh flavour for longer. The tins are designed to be refilled with beans or to be preserved as memorabilia or a souvenir.

Were there any specific references that informed the design?

Yes, The founder highlighted the deepening crisis that resulted from the current coffee practices. The founder educated us that for every cup of coffee we consume, it is almost sure that one square inch of rainforest is destroyed. Deforestation not only decreases biodiversity but also displaces Indigenous Peoples. As the environmental crisis deepens, he saw a potential solution in transforming the coffee economy to become sustainable. Therefore, specific references were made to the environment and Indigenous farming practices in the design of the Tin.
