Celebrating International Coffee Day

Did you know that as of 01 October 2015 we can now celebrate international coffee day? Nope? Well neither did we but I’m sure as hell excited that my favorite non-alcoholic beverage has a day of it’s own to be celebrated, loved and honored. If I could buy my coffee a coffee for being so amazing today’s the day to do it.

Being born and raised in Melbourne it has come as no surprise that I love and adore coffee. Take a moment to pop over to our Instagram account and you’ll commonly see coffee and I on an adventure.

: Confused coffee. What happens when you ask for a regular latte in Christchurch. The brown bucket is “regular” size

: Grimus Grind- the best coffee in all of Mt Buller

To help you celebrate International Coffee Day here are Jean’s top 3 tips to enjoying coffee when your on the road of adventure;

Acquire a reliable, sturdy plastic coffee cup. We prefer KeepCup for it’s durability and versatility. It works wonders holding small first aid kits, fits in a regular sized hand and offers some great colors making it a little less likely to be left behind at camp. These are also great for keeping your coffee warmer for longer.
A good coffee warms the heart and soul- Munich.
Fresh is best for the bean. Freshly ground that is. If you are a true coffeenerd and love the outdoors as much as we do than you’ll certainly want a Porlex Mini Hand Coffee Grinder. It’s light weight at 248g and has the ability to adjust grind. If you don’t have the time to grind away or maybe not the inclination to carry the extra wait then why not try out Jiva Cubes? Fresh coffee and sugar squished into a super convenient cube.

Share generously. Your morning/mid day/afternoon/10pm coffee moment is a great excuse to relax, unwind and share with the people around you. We love using our coffee time in the morning to have a light hearted discussion with our fellow adventurers.
