F.A.Q

About the Th3rdwave Advent Calendar 2024

GENERAL

What is a coffee advent calendar?

A coffee advent calendar is a variation of the traditional advent calendar. Instead of containing chocolates, toys, or other surprises, it features a curated selection of coffees for each day leading up to December 25th. It's a way for coffee enthusiasts to enjoy the pleasures of brewing and discovering a new coffee each morning!

What makes Th3rdwave coffee advent calendars so unique?

Our coffee advent calendar offers a 25 day count down, instead of the regular 24 days. Each coffee is sourced from a different roaster. This is a unique way to enjoy, discover and support local coffee roasters during the holidays!

SHIPPING

When is the advent calendar shipping?

We will start shipping orders in waves based on the destination. This is the estimated shipping schedule by region:

Quebec: November 18th

If you buy an advent calendar after the schedule shipping date, it will be shipped in a first come, first shipped basis.

All orders with delivery addresses in Montreal will be delivered by Th3rdwave.

What is the shipping cost?

Shipping is free all across Canada.

Where do you ship?

We ship to Canada mainly. If you’d like to ship outside of Canada, please contact us.

Can I purchase the advent calendar as a gift?

Yes! You can purchase and send our advent calendars to anyone living in Canada.

If you would like to avoid revealing the contents, you can choose the purchase as a gift option at checkout. This way, we will fulfill your order with a plain box.

COFFEE QUALITY

What is the quality of coffee?

We only select specialty coffees from artisan coffee roasters we know and trust. We have assessed the quality of the coffee and roasting of every roaster featured in our advent calendar.

All our partner roasters work in tandem with reputable coffee importers or directly with independent coffee producers to source high quality coffee. Our partner roasters truly care about every single coffee they roast, this is why we love them!

How do I know if I will like the coffees?

That’s what we do at Th3rdwave!

We run the coolest coffee subscription in Canada. Every month, we curate coffee boxes for our members.

We source coffees based on several attributes like origin, variety, process, and roasting style with the objective of offering unique coffees that our members will enjoy!

This year, you have the option to choose one of the two coffee profiles that suits your taste preferences:

Advent 2024 ✦ Quebec Edition

Fruity, Funky and Balanced
Chocolaty, Rich and Roasty

Advent 2024 ✦ Canada Edition

Fruity, Funky and Balanced
Chocolaty, Rich and Roasty

If you don’t know which profile is the right one for you, take the quiz!

Do all calendars have the same coffee line-up?

There are 4 different advent calendar lineups. Each calendar has 2 different characteristics.

First, you can choose the region to explore:

Roasters from all across Canada
Roasters from the province of Quebec

Then, you can choose from 2 different coffee profiles. This refers to the likely notes you may taste through out the 25 coffees:

Fruity, Funky and Balanced
Chocolaty, Rich and Roasty

PS: These tasting notes are NOT added flavors, but inherent notes from the coffee fruit, process and roasting style!

Do you offer different sizes?

You can choose from 2 different formats:

25 bags with 20g each, for a total of 500g of coffee
25 bags with 50g each, for a total of 1,250g of coffee

COFFEE ROASTING

When will the coffee be roasted?

Coffees will be roasted a few days before shipping in the month of November. A second batch of roasted coffee will be received early November to fulfill all incoming orders during the month to ensure coffee is brewed at its peak flavor.

Who is roasting the coffee?

Every featured coffee roaster in our advent calendar will be roasting their own coffee at their respective roastery. We will be receiving the coffee in bulk at our facility.

How is the coffee roasted?

Each advent calendar will offer similar roasting styles.

Advent 2024 ✦ Quebec Edition

Fruity, Funky and Balanced → Light roast
Chocolaty, Rich and Roasty → Medium-darker roast

Advent 2024 ✦ Canada Edition

Fruity, Funky and Balanced → Light roast
Chocolaty, Rich and Roasty → Medium-darker roast

How many coffees can I brew per day?

This is a tricky question because it depends on how big your cup of coffee is! But if we use the golden rules, these are the estimated quantities it will yield.

Yield for 25 days x 20g

For espresso, you will be able to pull one double shot of espresso per bag.
For filter, you will be able to brew about 300 ml of coffee per bag. This includes all manual brewing methods.

Yield for 25 days x 50g

For espresso, you will be able to pull 3-4 shots of espresso per bag. This will depend if you pull single or double shots of espresso.
For filter, you will be able to brew about 850 ml of coffee per bag. This includes all manual brewing methods.

Which brewing method should I use?

Great coffee can be brewed any way you like. However depending on the texture and the desired beverage, the method will vary. Espresso will be more suitable for all beverages with milk. Filter coffee will be better if you are looking to sip a clean cup of coffee.

Can I get my coffee ground?

Unfortunately, we do not offer the option to grind your coffee like we do in our coffee subscription. There are too many logistical limitations behind our advent calendar. Trust us, it is quite a challenge to source 25 coffees from 25 different roasters in a very short time for all our beloved customers!
