Driftaway is a coffee and coffee subscription from smallholder farmers around the world. Their coffee tasting sets and subscriptions connect you to your coffee growers, so you can see exactly who is behind your product and the process that goes into it. At the heart of their mission is to prioritize women-owned farms and minority producers, such as indigenous farm owners in Guatemala, and Black-owned farms in Brazil. Beyond that, they also exist to take the pretension out of speciality coffee, and prove that it can be inclusive, enjoyable experience for everyone—from producer to coffee taster.
Coffees are roasted in Brooklyn, and packed with compostable, plastic-free packaging. The brand also offsets 100% of their shipping and operating emissions. They focus on keeping a low carbon footprint by operating on an ecommerce model, using an energy efficient roaster, ground shipping, and minimizing freight shipping. They really think about every step of the process when it comes to operating sustainably.
