Impressive decaf

Drip coffee bags 101

A drip coffee bag is a single-serve filter that hangs over the rim of your cup. Pour hot water through it and it brews fresh coffee directly into your cup — just like a pour-over, but with nothing to set up and nothing to clean. All the flavour, none of the kit.

Who We Are

Shape of Coffee started the way most good things do — not with a business plan, but with a cup of coffee and a conversation that went on way too long.

We're two friends who've travelled together long enough to know each other's coffee orders, each other's worst habits, and exactly how much a bad brew in a good place can throw off your whole morning.

Along the way, we discovered drip coffee bags — and immediately started wondering why nobody was doing this with great UK-roasted coffee. So we decided to.
