Frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions about buying, roasting, freshness and customer care.

Orders & shipping

When will my order be dispatched?

We normally roast and dispatch orders within 1–2 business days.

Can I request faster dispatch?

You can leave a note in Special Requests during checkout. We will try to prioritize your order when feasible, depending on production and shipping conditions.

How much is shipping?

Orders to China (Mainland) include free standard shipping. Shipping to China (Hong Kong) and China (Macao) costs ¥25 per order; please confirm the charge in your checkout total before payment. For other destinations, contact us to discuss delivery availability and costs.

Can I change or cancel an order?

Contact us promptly before roasting or other customized production begins. We will try to assist with changes or cancellation. Once personalized production has started, cancellation for reasons unrelated to quality is generally not available, except where applicable law requires otherwise.

Buying & customization

Which roast level should I choose?

Start with the recommended roast if you are unsure. Lighter roasts often emphasize brighter fruit or floral notes; deeper roasts generally bring more body, sweetness and roast character.

Should I order whole beans or ground coffee?

Whole beans are recommended if you have a grinder and can grind shortly before brewing. Otherwise, choose the grind option that matches your brewing method.

Can I have my coffee packed in single-serve drip bags?

For eligible coffees, we can grind and pack the roasted coffee in drip bags. Available quantities and processing fees are shown in the product purchase options.

Do I need to choose a roasting machine?

Not necessarily. Use the recommended or default option if you have no equipment preference. This option is for customers familiar with differences between roasting machines.

What should I write in Special Requests?

Examples include dispatch preferences, splitting a pack or other brewing-related instructions. We will try to accommodate requests and contact you where confirmation is needed.

Freshness & storage

Is coffee roasted after ordering?

Coffee is normally roasted and processed according to your selected order preferences, then dispatched once ready.

How long should I rest the beans?

Resting recommendations depend on the coffee, roast and process. Please refer to the relevant product page.

How should I store my coffee?

Keep the package sealed, away from light, heat and moisture, and open it only as needed.

Flavor & after-sales

Why does my coffee taste different from the flavor description?

Water, grind size, brewing temperature, equipment, extraction and resting time all affect flavor. Tasting descriptions represent typical impressions, not guaranteed notes in every cup.

What if an item is missing, damaged or clearly defective?

Please contact us with your order details and relevant photos. After review we will arrange an appropriate replacement, reshipment or refund. Personal taste differences alone are generally not considered a product defect.
