Trade Coffee, Keep Grindin’. Tried all the coffee you can find at the store? Ready for new flavors, new roasts, and variety in your daily drip? We are too. That’s why discovering new coffers, supporting independent roasters and getting new coffee delivered to your door that tastes realllllyyyy good is what Trade is all about.

The types of wine on the market: five. The different kinds of wines on the market: at least 200. The total number of wine grape varieties: more than 1000. The time you or (we) have picking the next bottle for the summer ahead, a chill night in with the lady friend, or the bottle to gift at your boss’ birthday party: not enough. That is why when our crew found the neat, modern, and simple way to have wine dropped at your door from the brand Wine Awesomeness- we thought, hey how awesome.

How you would you like wine shipped to your door, for a fraction of the cost of getting it from the Cellar itself, all while each bottle is hand picked by a wine expert? Yeah- too good to be true. We know, right? Well, this is no gimmick or joke- it is though the business model of a new wine subscription our crew tried out: Cellars Wine Club.

Chicago Steak Company delivers high quality steaks direct to your door. All their steaks are aged for four to six weeks to develop the complexity of flavor demanded by 5-star restaurants, steakhouses, and discerning steak lovers- like you. Each steak is trimmed by butchers the old-fashioned way, hand-carved with expert precision to remove extra tissue and fat. The result is an exceptionally tender and flavorful steak, bite after beefy bite.

Coffee done different, but better. Most often when people think of coffee beans they imagine Brazil, Colombia, and Ethiopia as the hubs of coffee bean production. Little known fact, Vietnam happens to be the world’s second largest producer of coffee beans. In fact, Vietnam is expected to produce 32.2 million 60-kilogram bags of coffee in 2019–2020, according to the USDA. That’s a heck of a lot of beans. One of those bean brewing staples in Vietnam happens to be a brand known as NGYUEN Coffee Supply.

Have you ever worked a night shift? It sucks. What doesn’t suck is a legit cup of coffee while working said night shift. Ok so you don’t have to work a night shift to enjoy strong flavors, bold varieties, and coffee combinations that will make anyone say “pour me another cup.” With solid coffee (and we mean good coffee) it can help keep your eyes open and your focus on point- no matter what shift happens. Because our crew loves coffee (and by love we mean live off of coffee), and because there is a brand making it named Night Shift, we wanted to try the blends offered by Night Shift Brewing to tie our whole intro together (ok that is not the only reason).

Our crew gave Winc Wine Club a try! With a plethora of wines to choose from, delivery options we all can afford, and a streamlined process for how to pick and choose wines, Winc was an enjoyable way to keep the vino flowing in these odd and unpredictable times. So, get the door ‘cause yo’ wine is here!

We poured over (sorry- layup) several coffee services and found one we thought was worth a shot (at it again) and asked our new friends at Bean Box Coffee if we could give their brand a go on a review. They said “cool beans” (last one promise) and sent us their coffee to try.
