In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy to lose touch with the simple pleasures that rejuvenate our souls. For most these pleasures exist all around us and we can usually find some green space within a short walk, a bus ride or by hopping on a train.

Whether it's a park, a local woodland, a nature reserve or somewhere more hilly, if you can find the time (and you must find the time) then nature is calling your name! Hiking through lush forests, chilling in a park, scaling majestic peaks, and finding that perfect spot to watch the world go by offers not only a physical escape but also a profound mental and emotional renewal.

With all this, what could possibly elevate the hiking experience to a whole new level? For us, it's the ritual of brewing a steaming cup of coffee (or your favourite hot drink) amidst nature's embrace. Picture this: a secluded clearing bathed in golden sunlight, the aroma of freshly coffee wafting through the air, and the gentle bubbling of water as it meets the coffee grounds - tastes good right?

Collaborating with our pals at Scout Coffee Roasters, we've crafted a coffee that takes you, places.

Here at wildbarc, we relish nothing more than a cup of brew in the great outdoors, whether it's atop a mountain, nestled against a tree in a woodland, after a wild swim or shared around a campfire with friends. 

When you combine the therapeutic effects of being in nature with the stimulating properties of coffee, you create a powerful combo increasing alertness and improving mood - waving goodbye to the stresses of modern life and connecting you to the raw, unfiltered essence of existence... for a moment at least. 

So, without further ado we would like to introduce you to places... coffee that takes you.

A luxurious blend of  chocolate, almond and caramel notes in every drop, places espresso excels as a filter coffee. Versatile for every adventure, whether using a V60, cafetière, or Aeropress. Its adaptability ensures that no matter how you choose to brew it, you're guaranteed a rich, smooth, and always delicious cup of joe.

Its travel friendly sized bag, makes it perfect from home to trail, sure, you may have to carry a few extra bits, but believe us, its totally worth it! If you share our passion for the outdoors or if you're a beginner, alongside Places we have curated a collection of essential kit to make Al Fresco dining less of a task and more of a thrill!

The benefits of a stove of this type is that it won't weigh you down and you can neatly fit a small gas canister, the stove and a lighter all within our Titanium Pot or any other 750ml backpacking pot with a lid for that matter - a full kit that takes up very little space in your backpack.
