Starbucks Reserve Subscription | Panama Carmen Estate


I just received my first Starbucks Reserve subscription coffee in the mail! The simplistic packaging with Starbucks Reserve all over was rather nice to see at the front door. There are no bells and whistles inside. All you get with the coffee is an info card on Panama Carmen Estate. On the back of the card is a note on waiting a few days to try the coffee, as the beans need to de-gas. That sort of threw my video off track since I planned on brewing a cup at the end, but I should follow those instructions!

These subscriptions are $19/month. The price includes shipping, which is $5.95 for regular orders on the Starbucks website. That would bring the coffee price to around $13. There isn't an actual price listed on the bag, but it still puts it in the lower spectrum of Reserve coffee prices. Being on the lower price end doesn't mean it won't taste good. My favorite Vietnam Da Lat is $12.50 per bag! Check out my video below to see how a Reserve subscription is presented. Enjoy!
