Is Counter Culture Coffee legit?
Short answer: yes, Counter Culture Coffee is a real store, and our score is 4.0 out of 5. The main caveat: the standard subscription repeats blends after a few months.
It sells coffee, subscriptions, gifts and brewing equipment through its own website, counterculturecoffee.com. Independent reviews are still scarce, so judge it mainly on its policies. Returns: Refunds at Counter Culture's discretion up to 30 days after the roast date; unused coffee must be returned at your expense.
Our take: a legitimate brand worth considering.
Quality
An AOL roundup of coffee subscriptions named Counter Culture its top pick for quality, with the highest marks from testers for taste and consistency. Coffee Review has scored many of its coffees. Trustpilot has only three reviews.
Price and value
Bags cost about $17.50 to $26. Building your own bundle saves 25% and subscriptions save 10%; the single-origin plan adds variety if the blend rotation gets repetitive.
Shipping and returns
Coffee is roasted and shipped the same day from Durham, North Carolina, and orders of $30 and up ship free. Refunds are at Counter Culture's discretion up to 30 days after the roast date, and unused coffee must be returned at your expense.
Customer service
There are too few public reviews of the store to judge service.
