General Questions

To experience the full pleasure of Boca Java gourmet coffee, pay close attention to the brewing process:

  • First, we recommend you start with bottled or filtered water. Coffee is approximately 98% water, so your choice of water greatly impacts the taste.
  • Secondly, we recommend using between 1 3/4 to 2 tablespoons of our gourmet coffee per 8 oz. cup of filtered water. Adjust measurement to your taste preference. 
  • Also, if time and equipment permits, we recommend using whole bean coffee and grinding the beans just prior to the brewing process.

       Enjoy!

Our gourmet teas are handpicked from the finest gardens in the world. To indulge in the full flavor of our teas, we recommend the following brewing process:

  • We recommend that you start with bottled or filtered water.
  • Spoon one teaspoon of tea for each 6 ounces of filtered water. It is best to place the dry tea into an infuser that can be placed in a cup of water or in a tea press and then pour the boiling water on top of the tea.
  • Allow it to steep for 3 - 5 minutes. Then pour into a cup and enjoy!

One of the greatest benefits of the Boca Java Home Delivery Service is its flexible delivery program. Boca Java provides its customers with tools to custom-design their own delivery schedule to meet their needs. Additionally, Boca Java communicates all shipments via email prior to the packages leaving our fulfillment center so no customer should ever receive an unwanted delivery.

If you received an email regarding an order that you did not want, please contact one of our customer service representatives at 888-BOCA-JAVA before the order ship date. We notify our customers via email before all orders are shipped. If you call prior to shipment, we can reschedule the order, change the order, or even cancel the order (Obligation shipments are required before any orders may be cancelled for Home Delivery Service members who sign up through a promotional offer with obligations.).

Should you refuse a shipment prior to contacting a Customer Care representative, Boca Java will charge a $25 return shipping and handling fee. This will be in the form of an electronic gift certificate and will be applied directly to your account.

  • If coffee is included in your order, it typically takes us 48-72 hours to roast your coffee fresh to order and ship it out.
  • If coffee is not included in your order typically we ship 24-48 hours from the time you place your order.  Shipping dates may vary if order is placed on the weekend.
  • We use UPS and USPS as our carriers.  Depending on your location, this shipping time ranges from 1 to 5 days.
  • Overnight and 2 day Express Service is available through UPS by specifying that at checkout.  There is a surcharge for express services that are calculated at checkout.

Shipping costs vary based on weight, delivery method, and destination. Shipping costs are calculated and displayed at the time of checkout. If we incur increased costs for shipping and processing to certain addresses, an additional surcharge may be assessed. P.O. boxes, APO addresses, and shipments to Hawaii, Alaska, and all U.S. territories are assessed an additional $4 shipping charge ($8 for packages weighing more than 10 lbs.). Currently, we do not ship internationally.

We accept all major credit cards - Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.  To pay by credit card, click on  "view cart/checkout" after making your product selections.  You will then be guided through the checkout and payment process. We also accept payment for non-club orders via Paypal.
Yes, we take credit card security seriously. To ensure your credit card is safe, we encrypt the information into a secure socket file.

At Boca Java, we take customer service very seriously and we strive to exceed our customers' expectations in every aspect of our business, including our return policy. While we have a very tolerant return policy, we have refund policies in place to protect us from fraud-which ensures that we keep our product prices low for all customers.

Food Product Return Policy:
Because we are a roast-to-order coffee company with exacting freshness and quality standards, we do not resell returned coffee and therefore we only give store credit for returned coffee; however, if we send you items that are broken, defective, incorrect, or missing, we will re-ship the new item(s) at no charge. If we issue a credit, the first $25 will be applied to your Boca Java account as a store credit and the balance will be returned to your credit card. Your store credits will exclude shipping costs and are valid for 90 days from the date of issuance. If you cancel your coffee order after we begin roasting but before we ship your coffee, you will receive a store credit equal to 75% of the total order value, excluding shipping costs. All returns must be received within 30 days of the ship date.

Non-Food Product Return Policy:
Boca Java will exchange or replace any non-food product within 30 days of the ship date. After we receive your item(s), we will refund the full price of the item(s) minus shipping fees. The non-food return policy applies to all orders with the exception of items that were part of a promotional offer. For items returned that are broken, defective, incorrect, or missing, Boca Java will re-ship at no charge.

*All refunds are at Boca Java's discretion.

Yes, we do ship to P.O. Boxes, but a $4 surcharge will be charged per order that is in HI, AK, VI and PR. Unfortunately, we will not be able to provide our customers with tracking information for product shipped this way.

Enter the address as you normally would, but enter 'APO' for City, and 'AE' for State

A drop ship item is an item that gets shipped directly from the manufacturer rather than from our warehouse. Drop shipments have different return guidelines- they only offer a 30-day return opportunity and these returns include a 20% restocking fee. If a cancellation occurs after an item has been shipped, but before delivery occurs, the customer can refuse the package at the door; however, the customer will still be responsible for the 20% restocking fee, along with the shipping charges.
