It is the first of September and while many might be sorry that summer is coming to an end we have two great reasons to celebrate. 
First, this is the start of #OrganicSeptember a great campaign by the Soil Association to remind us of the importance of supporting organic choices.
Secondly, to celebrate #OrganicSeptember we are announcing a new product joining our Orzo♥Coffee family: our Orzo♥Coffee Pronto in single sachets!
The sachets are ideal to prepare a single mug of Orzo♥Coffee Pronto wherever you are, travelling, camping or anywhere you go. 
The sachets can be purchased in multiple of 10s from our online shop as addition to any other order but to celebrate #OrganicSeptember you will find 3 free sachets in any order from our online shop throughout September

Fear not, we are not getting easy-cheesy on St Valentine's Day, or at least not any cheesier than usual. Yet, St Valentine is a great opportunity to thank all the people who "love" us and allow us to be and live the life that we love.

So that's the deal for St Valentine's Day, all orders placed between 13th and 14th February will receive a lovely Orzocoffee Jute bag that you can use and re-use for you eco-friendly shopping. But that's not all, we also like to share the love with other (less fortunate than us) so for any order we will donate £1 to Cafe Art, and -drum rolls please - if we manage to reach the record number of 100 bags of orzo sold, we will double it up.
Question: How will we know when we have reached 100 bags?
Answer: Easy-peasy, order and share it with you friends on Facebook or Twitter #Orzocoffee, and if you are not connected you can just write a comment on our website. Easy enough?

So well, we are not going to wish you happy St Valentine's Day, instead we wish you to have plenty of people to thank - like we do.

Dear Orzolovers, thank you to the Moon and back!
