Pricing Increase Explained
An Important Note Regarding One Drop Coffee Prices
Dear Valued One Drop Coffee Community,
Since we first began our journey in 2022, pouring our passion into every small batch we roast here at One Drop Coffee, our commitment has remained unwavering: to deliver exceptional, premium coffee to your cup. We've been honored to share our carefully sourced and expertly roasted beans with you, and we deeply appreciate your continued support.
Over the past few years, like many small businesses, we've navigated fluctuations in the costs associated with bringing you the high-quality coffee you've come to expect. From green bean sourcing to packaging and shipping, we've absorbed several increases in our production expenses, determined to maintain our original pricing for our valued customers.
However, recent developments in the global market have presented unprecedented challenges. In the last couple of months alone, the cost of doing business in the coffee industry has seen dramatic price hikes, largely due to newly implemented tariffs on imported goods. These significant increases in our raw material costs have made it unsustainable for us to continue absorbing these expenses without compromising the quality you deserve.
It is with sincere regret that we must announce a price adjustment to our offerings, effective 4/19/25. This was not a decision we made lightly, and we understand that price increases can be frustrating. Please know that we explored every possible alternative before arriving at this necessary step.
Despite this adjustment, our fundamental commitment to providing you with the absolute best, premium coffee at the fairest price possible remains our top priority. We believe that the exceptional quality and care that goes into every bag of One Drop Coffee justifies its value.
What sets One Drop Coffee apart?
- Small Batch, Roasted to Order: We take pride in our meticulous approach to roasting. Each batch is roasted only after your order is placed, ensuring the absolute highest level of quality and the freshest coffee delivered right to your door.
- Premium Packaging for Lasting Freshness: We understand the importance of preserving the integrity of our beans. That's why we invest in high-level packaging designed to maintain optimal freshness from the moment it leaves our roastery until you brew your first cup.
- 100% Organic Coffee: Better for You and the Planet: We are committed to sourcing only 100% organic coffee beans. This means our coffee is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers, resulting in a healthier and cleaner cup for you and contributing to more sustainable farming practices.
- The Air Roasting Advantage: We utilize an air roasting method, which offers significant benefits over traditional drum roasting. Hot air evenly circulates around the beans, resulting in a more consistent roast, eliminating scorching, and bringing out the nuanced flavors of each origin. This process allows for greater control and ultimately delivers a brighter, cleaner, and more flavorful cup of coffee.
We understand that these are fluctuating times for everyone, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding and patience as we navigate these market shifts. We want to assure you that this price adjustment is a necessary measure to ensure the long-term sustainability of One Drop Coffee and our ability to continue providing you with the exceptional coffee you love.
Thank you for being a part of the One Drop Coffee family. We remain dedicated to crafting exceptional coffee and sharing our passion with you, one delicious drop at a time.
Sincerely,
The Team at One Drop Coffee
