Free Coffee

Overview

Australian specialty coffee brand Toby's Estate has just dropped a new line of single-serve instant coffee bags, aiming to improve the quality of instant coffee — and provide a product for both coffee aficionados and casual drinkers. To get you on board, a pop-up is happening at Southern Cross Station this weekend, where you can get yourself a free sample and enter into the draw to win a year's supply of coffee.

The single-serve coffees come in two flavour profiles: 'The Next Frontier', with hints of dark chocolate and toffee; and 'Forbidden Planet', for the more fruity taste of strawberries and milk chocolate. You can give them a try from 9am–1pm — or until Melbourne's coffee lovers drink them all — on Saturday, February 22.

In a time when "single use" is a hot topic, it'll be interesting to see how people take to the concept of individually packaged, one-use-only coffees, — even though the bags are 100-percent biodegradable and the outer packaging is made from renewable and compostable materials.

Of course, it can't be denied that a cheap and quick coffee option that actually tastes good wouldn't go astray in most office kitchens.
