Consumers will often opt to brew a fresh pot of java from the convenience of their own home, however, packaged coffee blends often loose it's flavor after its been opened, resulting in a less than satisfying experience the second time round. La Colombe Coffee has created a solution to this problem with their latest packaged coffee iteration which features pre-measured 'coffee vaults' which make an entire pot of the fresh morning pick-me-up.
The small, single-serve vaults can be bought in packs of 8 and used in one go, offering same day freshness. Each pack is sealed to optimize the taste, which features "rich cocoa notes." The vaults have a shelf life of up to three months, providing consumers with a cost-effective method of caffeine consumption that doesn't compromise taste.
