In our Saturday Drive Summer edition, we introduced you to the different brands that extend under the Saturday Drive umbrella. Today, we want to spotlight our hot and steamy coffee brand, BonLife Coffee Roasters.
As pumpkin spice season gets into full swing, we want to highlight BonLife Coffee Roasters, one of our premium Saturday Drive brands. BonLife is crafted for discerning coffee aficionados who appreciate a superb cup made from the finest beans. This month, BonLife participated in the Golden Bean, winning the coffee industry’s highest honor for roasting excellence.
Today, we are excited to share a bit about BonLife and what goes on at the Golden Bean competition.
BonLife Coffee Roasters and the Golden Bean Awards
BonLife Coffee Roasters has been crafting the best coffee in North America for over 11 years, as proven by our three Golden Bean awards. Our story is not just about coffee; it’s about the journey that connects farmers, traders, roasters, brewers, and you – the coffee drinker. It’s about improving lives in some of the poorest countries that produce this valuable commodity.
What are the Golden Bean Awards?
The Golden Bean is an Australia-based competition for coffee roasters that now has a North American division. It is the world’s largest coffee roasting competition, taking place over five days in a different city each year. Competitors are judged in three categories: milk, espresso, and filter coffee.
Unlike other competitions, all attendees participate in the judging. The highest scorers in each category advance to the finals, where they are evaluated by expert tasters. The Golden Bean goes to the roaster with the highest cumulative score.
This year, BonLife won the top prize in all three Golden Bean categories!
To celebrate our triple win at the 2023 Golden Bean Awards, we are offering 30% off your first online order at BonLifeCoffee.com. Simply use code NINJAFORMS at checkout to get 30% off any coffee purchase, excluding subscriptions. Feel free to share this code with friends – we won’t tell!
We’re elated to mark a special milestone this month! Our engineer, Nico, has reached an incredible four years with Saturday Drive. Beyond his stellar coding, Nico recently relocated his family to Spain, embracing the ‘Buena Vida lifestyle. A huge thank you, Nico, for your unwavering dedication and for making Saturday Drive such a fantastic place to work!
