Although you probably don't have to venture very far to find a local Starbucks, the chain is now offering a coffee subscription service to give people even more ways to get their daily java fix.
The subscriptions are available as part of three, six, 12 and ongoing subscriptions, featuring options to receive a curated set of products or, true to Starbucks' brand, craft something personalized. What's neat about Starbucks Subscriptions is the fact that any item from the online shop can be added to a subscription, adding incentive to check back in for new teas, coffee beans and other products to prepare at home. One of the biggest advantages of going with a subscription (versus picking up a bag of coffee at Starbucks) is delivery, which happens within days of the roasting date to ensure maximum freshness.
