Rather than answer this ourselves here are what other customers feel after drinking Exhale (all verified Trust Pilot reviews):

“I’m so alert and stable for the entire day, compared to a normal coffee which spikes before shortly plummeting. Exhale are game changers.”- Amanda Evans, 19th Dec 2022.

“I'm in love. No blood sugar crashes, no IBS stuff. Just focus and energy”. - Magdalena M, 6th Feb 2023.

“I am a coffee snob and this is simply delicious!” – Vicki, 4th Feb 2023.

“As a life long IBS sufferer who has struggled with coffee exacerbating symptoms I can honestly say that Exhale has been only beneficial for my gut health, my IBS is gone!” – HannaP, 13th Dec 2022.

“Really have noticed the difference in my alertness since using Exhale” – danielmensah, 31st Jan 2023.

“I can honestly say, my one cup of exhale mid morning is one of the highlights of my day, it is simply happiness in a mug!” – L F Wates, 18th Jan 2023.

“The flavour of Exhales organic house roast is exquisite. I'm not even going to try and describe the taste sensation, it just needs to be experienced.” – Jane, 3rd Jan 2023.

“If you are on the fence about buying and looking at reviews to see if you should, then this review is to tell you that YOU SHOULD! And if this review doesn't do it for you then just head over and talk to Exhale Coffee their humility and kindness will definitely sway it for you. :)” - John Brotherton, 11 Nov 2022.

This is our favourite question! There have been over 21,000 studies published on coffee or caffeine so there is very little about coffee we don't know.

For a full write up on why coffee is healthy, listing dozens of studies supporting our claims, visit The Science page.

For a full explanation of how our unique process is designed to create a ridiculously healthy and uncompromisingly sustainable coffee visit Our Process.

We also have written a broad range of articles explaining almost any question you could have on coffee and health, in depth, all fully cited, in our Journal.

The research is clear - for the maximum health benefits from coffee you should drink 3 to 5 cups a day (or 2 to 3 mugs). Read our article on how much coffee is too much?

1 x 450g bag contains around 30 mugs of coffee.

If you're sensitive to caffeine try mixing our regular coffee and our decaf for a half-caf. They're from the same farm so mix well together. Or go for our decaf.

The cost of living crisis is affecting small business as much as consumers. Faced with having to put up prices to cover escalating costs we looked outside the box and an idea was born.

We put it to the vote and heard from over 2,000 of our subscribers. They were overwhelmingly in favour (>90%)...

So from the 6th of March we only offer double the coffee (450g) in the same sized pouch, for double the price, so no net price increase.

Overnight we halved the packaging used and send half the deliveries so halving our outbound carbon footprint. This means no net price increase for you, but a huge win for the environment. And for us, we made cost savings needed instead of putting our prices up.

No, it needs brewing in something like a cafetiere, AeroPress, espresso machine or dripper etc.

It's well worth the effort though because it's healthier and more delicious!

Instant coffee has been linked to some nasty diseases and has 4 times the amount of mould / mycotoxins on average! Read our article reviewing the latest research.

It is indeed. We test every shipment of our coffee at an independent lab for pesticides, mould, yeasts, mycotoxins and heavy metals to verify the coffees absolute purity.

It is then stored in GrainPro ultra-hermetic sealed bags in a temperature controlled environment.

Most supermarket bought coffees were roasted and ground months before you buy them leaving them likely to stale and open to contamination. All our coffee is roasted fresh weekly to make sure you’re drinking the freshest, cleanest possible brew.

If you want to know more, read our article on why you should avoid mycotoxins and learn how they're a bigger issue than you may think in coffee.

Coffee comes from a fruit and like any other fruit is packed full of naturally healthy compounds. The most beneficial being polyphenols such as chlorogenic acid.

Through over roasting and poor handling these compounds are often significantly reduced in other coffees. Studies show up to a 31-fold difference between some cups of coffee!

During our unique process we sourced a bean naturally high in the healthiest compounds and roasted in a way that locks in as much of them as possible.

We also keep out the bad and our organic coffee also independently tested to be free from moulds, mycotoxins, pesticides and other nasties.

No we don't, because we don't need to!

A good quality coffee that's been treated right is as healthy as any other 'superfood' on the planet.

There's a modern trend towards taking poor quality ingredients (such as instant coffee, read our blog on that here) and adding whatever the latest fad, on-trend superfood is to make it 'healthy' again.

We instead took the care to (obsessively) look after every stage from farm to cup and work with the wonderful things naturally in our coffee already.

It definitely wasn't the easiest option, but it's the best one for you and the planet and that's what matters to us. 😁

Yes you can, but multiple studies show the quantity of the healthiest compounds vary immensely from coffee to coffee.

In 2014 one study tested 104 espressos from cafes in Scotland, Italy and Spain and found a 31 fold difference between the highest and lowest concentrations of coffee's healthiest compound!

It should... One study shows that polyphenols counteract the negative effects of caffeine, reducing anxiousness. So a high polyphenol coffee like Exhale should reduce the jittery effects from caffeine.

This has been confirmed by lots of our customers who have reported this (just search for jitters or anxious in our Trust Pilot reviews).

However, everyone is unique so it’s impossible to say for certain how you will react. And if you're really worried then we also do a cracking decaf.

I’d love to know how you get on so please drop me an email on alex@exhalecoffee.com if you do try it. 

Yes. It's true.

Caffeine is one of the few scientifically proven 'ergogenic aids to performance'. Meaning it will help you preform better, on average 11-12% better according to 2x meta-analyses!

However, unlike other coffees, Exhale coffee is also high in polyphenols which studies have shown can improve both sprint and endurance performance.

So in Exhale coffee the caffeine and polyphenols work synergistically to give you a double performance boost! Win win!!

For more, read our blog on how to use coffee to set a new PB.

Most of the health benefits are the same across the caffeinated and decaf versions, with only a minor magnification of effects in some areas due to the ‘entourage effect’. So you’re still onto a winner with the decaf.

The areas where decaf isn't as protective are broadly:

• Liver health. Coffee is very protectiive of the liver. Those effects are more pronounced in regular coffee.
• Cognitive health. Especially age-related cognitive benefits are slightly less pronounced in decaf.

I wouldn’t worry though, if you’re not a fan of caffeine (or it's not a fan of you!), the decaf is still packed full of antioxidants and polyphenols so is hugely beneficial. 

We try our best to make sure it is.

Health, taste AND sustainability were genuinely equally prioritised at every stage of our process. Whcih was recognised by our B Corp certification.

So technically there could be a healthier coffee out there (shhh!) but perhaps it didn't pay a fair price to the farmer, or was grown with polluting, non-organic pesticides, in which case we wouldn't touch it.

It's as good as currently exists... all our coffee is delivered in compostable, plastic free packaging, and all the paper we use is from FSC Certified renewable sources.

The pouch itself is home compostable (you can compost it in your garden) but the valve and zipper are industrially compostable so tear them off and pop in your green waste bin.

The world's insatiable thirst for polluting, single use plastic has to stop. And we want to be part of that change.

We're always looking for more environmentally friendly ways to package our coffee so please let us know if you have any suggestions!

There’s a good chance you’ll be able to better tolerate our coffee. Check our Trust Pilot reviews and search for things like 'crash', 'anxious' or 'jitters' for hundreds of reviews from happy customers who can tolerate Exhale coffee better than others.

One reason could be because it has high levels of polyphenols which studies show counter some of the negative effects some people feel from caffeine.

It's a free trial so give it a go, but if you still don't react well to the caffeine we also offer a delicious decaf which is water processed, has most of the same health benefits and tastes so good even the coffee snobs wouldn't be able to tell it's decaf!
