Elevate showcases our sustainable sourcing practices like no other, and we figured, what better way to build on these ideals than to expand this offering’s accessibility by creating a coffee that can be brewed nearly anywhere? The solution: Be Mine? - Specialty Instant Coffee, a reimagined celebration of sustainability that’s sure to fill your heart with nostalgia and reminiscence for old-school Valentine's Day card and gift exchanges.


Each individually-portioned sachet included in a Be Mine? box features a space to personalize a special message for your Valentine(s), so you can share the love for the well-balanced versatility of one of our favorite coffees, making it the perfect Valentine's treat for the unique and sustainably-conscious.

"This was such an incredible project to work on! Attention to detail was a key focus for this release, not only in reference to the design process, but for the coffee itself. Elevate, the base coffee for Be Mine?, showcases our sustainable sourcing practices like no other, making it the perfect Valentine's treat for the unique and sustainably-conscious."

Our Be Mine? Specialty Instant Coffee goes on the same journey as our whole bean Elevate: sustainably sourced from our producer relationships and roasted by hand. Then, the beans are sent over to our partners at Swift Cup Coffee, whe the coffee is brewed and slowly dehydrated to preserve the full flavor of Elevate that you know and love. The prepared instant coffee is then individually packed, sealed, and boxed up in perfect portions for your convenience and enjoyment.


Elevate is well-balanced, comfortable, dynamic, and versatile with a sweet acidity and velvet mouth-feel. The tasting notes of red apple, caramel, and pecan pie are preserved in the dehydration process, allowing for the brewing of exceptional coffee in mere moments.


The long-awaited introduction of a Valentine’s Day coffee first came to fruition with the main graphics created by Sophie Wheeler of Soupie Studios with ideas and additions from our in-house graphic design and marketing teams. Be Mine? wouldn’t exist without the outstanding team effort from all sides - a great testament to the ideal that “we’re only as great as the sum of our partners." From our designers to our packing teams, Be Mine? is a Valentine’s Day treat, crafted especially for you.
