Our verdict
Gourmesso suits US households already committed to a pod machine who want certified coffee without leaving the pod aisle. Founded in 2013, it lists organic, fairtrade and rainforest alliance across a range that is pods only, so the trade-off is narrow choice for a simpler basket.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Three certifications on the range, with organic, fairtrade and rainforest alliance listed on the same page as the products
- Pods only, so a pods basket stays simple if you own one machine type
- Free delivery once orders pass $50
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, covering phone and chat as well as email
Cons
- The range is pods only, narrower than OutIn, which lists whole bean, ground and pods
- Shipping is limited to US, so there is no route outside that market
- Certifications are limited to organic, fairtrade and rainforest alliance, with no direct trade or B Corp listing beside them
- Atlas Coffee Club covers more of the order, with coffee subscription, coffee roaster and pods beyond coffee pods
Who it suits
- US households with a pod machine who prioritise certified sourcing
- Drinkers who want one repeatable basket rather than rotating formats
- Shoppers who cross the free delivery threshold on $50 of pods
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone outside US who wants home delivery
- Buyers who want whole bean or ground coffee, since OutIn lists whole bean, ground and pods
- Households wanting tea or a wider range, as Atlas Coffee Club includes coffee subscription, coffee roaster and pods
Who runs it
Gourmesso runs as Coffee Capsules Inc., a US company headquartered in the United States, and it has been trading since 2013. Support is handled through email, chat and phone, so a question can go to a person on the phone or in a live chat as easily as by email, with a help centre for anything the team publishes in writing.

Frequently asked questions
What does Gourmesso sell?+
Gourmesso sells pods, and the range is listed in pods as well. Everything runs through pod capsules, so a basket suits anyone whose kitchen already has a compatible machine rather than a drinker deciding on a new brewing method.
Which certifications does the coffee carry?+
The range lists organic, fairtrade and rainforest alliance. That means an organic, fairtrade and rainforest-alliance line-up, which is a wider set of standards than many capsule ranges carry, though the list names no direct trade or B Corp programme alongside them.
Where does Gourmesso deliver?+
Shipping is listed for US, and the company is based in the United States. That makes it a domestic option for US households, with no delivery route shown for readers shopping from another country.
Is there free delivery?+
Free delivery kicks in once an order passes $50. Shoppers who buy enough capsules in one go to clear that figure pay nothing on shipping, while smaller repeat orders fall under the threshold and are billed for delivery.
How can I get help?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone. Email and a self-serve help centre cover most questions, with phone and chat available for anything more involved, and a US phone line is a wider channel than capsule ranges often offer.
How long has the company been trading?+
Gourmesso was founded in 2013 and trades as Coffee Capsules Inc.. A long operating history gives some reassurance that the pods and support contacts listed here are backed by an established business rather than a short-lived storefront.
Can I buy loose coffee from Gourmesso?+
Not in the range listed here. pods names pods, and pods gives the same single answer, so buyers who want whole bean or ground coffee would need a different roaster. OutIn lists whole bean, ground and pods for that reason.
How does Gourmesso compare with Nespresso on range?+
Nespresso lists coffee subscription and pods, pairing capsules with a coffee subscription, while Gourmesso's offering is pods only. Gourmesso therefore suits an existing pod habit, and Nespresso suits readers who want a subscription layered onto capsules.
