- Pick Atlas Coffee Club if you want each box to feel like a little trip, with one country’s coffee and the story behind it. Its Double (24 oz) plan gives the lowest bag price of the two, before shipping.
- Pick Bean Box if you want more say over what shows up: you choose the style and how often it comes, from every 2 weeks to every 6, with coffees from different roasters. Plan on the per-delivery shipping fee, which matters most on 1-bag plans.
