Siip: Coffee discovery, built around your taste. “I know what coffee I like when I taste it… but I couldn’t describe what I like, or where to find it.” Sound familiar? Most of us either buy the same safe coffee over and over… …or gamble on a new bag based on the packaging, roast date, or tasting notes. Think of Siip like that friend who knows your coffee taste so well, they always seem to know which bag you’ll love next. Whether you’re buying coffee at the grocery store, a local café, or through Siip, the app helps you make better coffee decisions with confidence. What you can do with Siip • Build a personal coffee taste profile by rating the coffees you drink • Discover coffees matched specifically to your taste • Scan or search coffees to instantly see how well they match your preferences • Learn what origins, varieties, and processing styles you naturally gravitate toward • Keep track of your favorite coffees and how your taste evolves over time Coffee chosen for your taste. Every month, Siip subscribers receive coffees selected specifically for their taste from a handpicked collection of the country’s best independent specialty roasters—each sourcing extraordinary coffees from producers around the world. Here’s the fun part: Many of our members tell us their favorite coffee ended up being one they never would have picked themselves.
