You Can Now Order Single Origin Coffee Via The World's First Twitter Robot

Hell-bent on getting New Zealanders to drink the best coffee in the world, and to avoid the brown grit found at the supermarket, brothers George and Sam Coltart launched Upfront Coffee, a service that delivers single origin coffee to your door or desk within seven days of being roasted.

As the name suggests, the service is upfront about the origin of your coffee, with all varieties on offer ethically sourced, traceable and in-season. Finding your exact variety can be executed through the slick Upfront website.

Flexibility is a key component of the website, allowing users to select exactly what they want or to leave it completely in the hands of the coffee gods. After ticking boxes like personal brewing technique, drinking frequency, and your passion for trying new things, the site rounds it all down to one perfect suggestion. In CP’s own trial of Upfront we were recommended Mogiana - a grind from the depths of Brazil with traits of poached pear.

Once set up, further orders can be completed by simply sending a tweet to the company’s purpose built coffee robot Robo Joe - the world's first Twitter robot for on-demand coffee. Deliveries are sent out free of charge the next day.

Because we're all worthy of a decent cup of joe, Upfront Coffee have kindly offered Concrete Playground readers their first 250g bag of single origin coffee, delivered for only $4 (with no tie-ins or contracts).

To access the deal, simply enter the code LOVECP when ordering.
