Starry Night

Starry Night

Don’t you just love the natural beauty of a starry night? No buildings or people around to bother you; no light or noise pollution; no human activity for miles around - just you drinking in the infinite swirling beauty of a vast, dark starry sky.

One of the most stunning starry skies you can experience has to be the twinkling 600-mile blackness of the Atacama Desert in Chile. This dry, sandy plain is home to not only some of the clearest night skies around but also boasts the ALMA Observatory, other telescopes in development, and observatories dotted around the area. If you adore stargazing, you can stay at an open-ceilinged tent or glass-roofed timber cabin in Elqui Domos.

Then there’s Pennsylvania’s Cherry Springs State Park. In 2014, Pennsylvania was home to the northern lights four times! The park’s annual Black Forest Star Party draws in astronomers from all over the world every September. 

Another stunning stargazing destination is Hawaii’s, Mauna Kea. If the threat of altitude sickness doesn’t faze you, this remote 13,796-foot summit boasts starry views you won’t get anywhere else, as well as radiant sunrises and sunsets.

But you don’t have to travel as far afield as this to experience the swirling dark bliss of a starlit sky - our Starry Night coffee is the easy way to experience all the unrivalled solitude and purity of stargazing at home. Just as clutter-free as a real starry night, all the flavor of this fairtrade coffee shines through. Our decaf version is Swiss Water Processed, Fair Trade and Organic.
