Tayst Bold & Brazen Coffee Pods vs Tayst Defiantly Decaf Coffee Pods

A dark, cocoa-heavy K-Cup for somebody who wants the pod compostable and does not want it weak

Chemical-free Swiss Water decaf in a pod that composts

• +BPI certification covers the pod, lid, ring and mesh, not one component with the rest unsaid
• +Rainforest Alliance Certified beans, so the sourcing claim is audited rather than described
• +A $20 Down To Earth return kit gives you a composting route when your council has none
• +Cheaper per cup than Nespresso's Vertuo Melozio at $1.40

• −$1.04 a pod against $0.64 for San Francisco Bay's OneCUP, which carries the same BPI certification
• −Commercially compostable only, in a landfill bin the certification changes nothing
• −No bulk discount: 40, 50 and 60 pods all work out at the same $1.04
• −No dose published, so the price per kilo cannot be calculated
• −Origins not published for the blend

• +Swiss Water Process named on the product, where most pod decaf does not say
• +No decaf premium, the same $1.04 as the caffeinated blends
• +Full body and dark roast, which decaf pods often lack
• +Same BPI certified pod and Rainforest Alliance beans as the rest of the range

• −Decaf K-Cups exist at roughly half the price if the method does not matter to you
• −Commercial composting only, same as the rest of the range
• −No dose or origins published
