Everything in my March 2021 box!
Antica Farmacista Scented Candle Macchiato ($46) Mornings are better with this scented candle featuring the aroma of a hot cup of macchiato. The espresso, baked bread, and butter pastry notes easily awakens the senses and sets up my mood for the day.
There’s also a product overview inside the booklet.
The scented candle also includes a set of Antica signature matches.
The soy-paraffin wax candle is inside their signature soft white glass, which can be repurposed when you’re done with the candle.
Measuring 3.5″ in height and 3.5″ in diameter, this candle can burn for up to 60 hours!
Wash With Joe Coffeemint Bodywash ($34) Here’s another coffee-infused item, a coffee and peppermint body wash that cleanses the skin and leaves it feeling refreshed. It features an energizing aroma that can be enjoyed by both men and women.
This formula naturally eliminates odor. It’s vegan, paraben-free, and cruelty-free as well.
Another thing I like about this body wash is that it lathers well, and washes easily without leaving a residue. This is a great choice of body wash for morning showers!
Mocha Nola Java Chip Coffee Granola ($5.95) Now, we’re onto breakfast, as they included a pack of java chip coffee-flavored granola. It’s the perfect mix of chocolate and coffee, with the crunchiness of whole oats!
The packaging is resealable, and there’s also a clear part where we can see its contents.
Ingredients include whole grain oats, cocoa powder, chocolate chips, single origin coffee and coconut water.
This pan-baked granola is made with all natural ingredients. I like having these with some milk, but they are also good as toppings for ice cream or incorporated with baked goods.
Caffe Luxxe Montenero Espresso & Drip Blend ($18) This coffee-themed box wouldn’t be complete without actual coffee! This one is a premium blend of coffee made from bean varieties from Ethiopia, Brazil, Mexico, and Papua New Guinea. It has a bold, yet perfectly balanced taste!
An article about Caffe Luxxe and Montenero blend is also featured inside the booklet.
It has luscious notes of dark chocolate, caramel, and jasmine. The packaging also indicates the date when it was processed.
The packaging provided some tips on how to prepare the perfect cup of coffee. According to the,, the ideal water temperature is between 196 – 205 F. Also, the ideal ration is 2 tablespoons of coffee for every 6 ounces of water.
A message from the Caffe Luxxe team can also be found on the packaging.
These beans are so fresh and the aroma is just addicting!
Montenero proudly carries a 91-point rating from Coffee Review!
Elemental Tumbler in Gold ($32.95) This tumbler is a great way to bring my coffee when I’m out and about! It’s specially designed for bringing on-the-go, as the size is compatible with cup holders and its bottom part has a non-slip material.
There’s a textured part on its body for better grip and handling.
It’s BPA-free and the triple wall copper insulation can keep beverages hot up to 6 hours or cold up to 18 hours.
The opening looks different from regular tumblers! This one has a well construction to avoid burning your mouth with hot drinks.
It also has a full ceramic lid with a spill-resistant plug.
Elemental Stainless Steel Classic Water Bottle ($34.95) To match the gold-colored tumbler, they also included a gold-colored water bottle. This stylish 25 oz. bottle container maintains the coldness of drinks up to 24 hours or keeps it hot for 12 hours.
The bottle features a bamboo lid to seal it. There’s also a metal ring for hands-free carrying and bag attachment.
It’s made from 18/8 stainless steel, which doesn’t affect or leave taste on the drinks you put in it. It has a powder coat finish as well!
All the items in this month’s box are related to coffee! The items proved that coffee can be used and enjoyed in so many ways, from the coffee-scented candle and coffee-infused body wash to the coffee-flavored granola and the coffee beans. The tumbler and bottle are great additions in the box as well, and they can help keep my drink warm for a long time wherever I am. The overall retail value of the box is $172, which is higher than the box’s monthly cost, and the candle is such a luxury goodie. This box was a good selection if you’re a coffee lover and you can’t live without coffee in your life!
