A lovely cup of steaming coffee when you reach your desk in the morning - is there any better way to get you set up for the day? It's important that you don't overdo it when it comes to drinks that contain caffeine, but in moderation you simply can't beat the gently bitter taste of freshly brewed coffee.
Whether you want a supply of instant coffee at work, or you live in a house full of coffee drinkers, then buying wholesale tubs of coffee is a great way to ensure that you've got a constant supply that won't run out when you least expect it. These big coffee tubs are available from several retailers, but for the purposes of this article we'll be focusing on the products offered by online office supplies store Viking.
Viking offers many different types of coffee in tubs weighing up to 750g, and these can be delivered straight to your door. If you think that you couldn't possibly drink that much coffee, then you can instead choose one of the 500g or 200g tubs or jars offered by Viking.
Or, for the ultimate in convenience, you can purchase individual coffee sachets from Viking. These are perfect for when you need to be alert and ready for a fast-paced day at work. You can tear open a sachet of great-tasting coffee, pour it into a waiting mug and pour some hot water on it (if your workplace has an instant water boiler, you can make it even quicker!) and you're good to go. Viking even offers drinks readymade in the cup - all you have to do is add water to the powder and you'll soon have a beautiful white coffee that will soon be cool enough to drink. These cups come in sleeves and are designed for vending machines, but there's no reason why you can't keep one of these sleeves around the house for a quick hot drink, and they're perfect for corporate events too - if you're entertaining clients at work then you can line up many coffees and serve them in a matter of minutes.
Viking offers many types of coffee in wholesale sizes. You can buy 500g tins that contain instant cappuccino, latte and mocha drinks - again, all you have to do is add water to the powder. Or, if you love the taste of coffee but would rather not consume caffeine, you can buy wholesale-size decaffeinated coffee from Viking too.
If you fancy a luxury drink that is super convenient to make, then why not try one of the Nescafe Dolce Gusto capsule packs? These contain liquid-filled capsules designed for use in the Nescafe Dolce Gusto coffee machines, which make it easy to get great-tasting cappuccinos and other coffee drinks that would traditionally be quite difficult to make at home. These are available from Viking in packs of eight, but if you choose to order in bulk, the price of each pack decreases. For example, if you order one or two from Viking, you'll be charged the standard price, but if you order six or more you'll be charged considerably less.
Another great option from Viking for those seeking premium-quality coffee is the Douwe Egberts Medium Roast Filter Coffee. This is available in packs of 250g and, again, costs less per pack the more you buy.

Those who live or work with avid coffee drinkers can save money by ordering it in wholesale-sized packs. This article looks at the different types of bulk coffee available, focusing on the products offered by office supplies retailer Viking.
