Hi again! CrazyDogMama here. I need to talk about Bespoke Post – a luxury subscription box geared towards men that I just love (as a woman)! I find that I am quite drawn to many men’s items these days, however most of Bespoke Post box offerings are unisex. Bespoke Post offers a variety of different themed boxes each month to choose from that include high quality items such as culinary/kitchen tools, outdoor gear, clothing, grooming products, home decor and more. The best part is – you get to choose exactly what you want, and can skip any month that doesn’t interest you! There is absolutely zero risk, and each box is a decent value over retail pricing. I’m all about quality over quantity, and this box is perfect for that! Today I’m going to review the “Mellow” box, because I apparently need to mellow-out. It is still available while supplies last here!
Here’s how it works:
Monthly subscription boxes are $45 (+tax and $3.95 shipping), and each month on the 1st, you will receive an email with a box chosen for you based on your profile, including all the details of the contents therein. You have 5 days from that point to change colors, sizes, or choose a different box altogether! You can also add items to your shipment from their shop at no additional shipping cost. Boxes then ship out around mid-month. If none of the boxes offered excite you, you can choose to skip that month – no questions asked. The process will start over the next month with new offerings.
Here are the CURRENT selection of boxes. Keep in mind the variety changes frequently!
In addition to the regular monthly club subscription, they are also now offering what are called “Provisions Subscriptions“, that are monthly boxes for wine, soap or coffee, specifically.

Bespoke Post “Mellow” Box Review
So I make my box selection by the 5th of the month (with any add-ons I might like), then I’m generally charged for my box right before it ships out – which is usually around mid-month unless otherwise noted. I have never once had an issue with billing or shipping since I started getting Bespoke Post way back in 2017!
It’s always packed well, but with no fancy frills. This is a men’s box, you know!
The Bespoke Post “Mellow” Box can still be purchased while supplies last, and if it’s your first Bespoke Post box, you’ll definitely want to take advantage of the $20 coupon!
The ‘Mellow’ box is all about stimulating with caffeine (coffee OR tea) and counteracting that by chilling with a few drops CBD oil, and flavoring your favorite grounds with cinnamon – which has benefits all it’s own.
The insert explains it all…
SOMA Double-Wall Glass Tea and Coffee Brew Bottle – Retail Value $40 (NOTE: Can be currently found here for $38.19.)
Here is the official description:
Whether you drink coffee or tea, and whether you prefer it hot or cold, this beautifully-designed vessel ensures you’ll have a supply on hand wherever you go. It’s constructed from double-wall, insulating borosilicate glass that’ll stay comfortable to the touch, and outfitted with a stainless steel filter and leak-proof Tritan lid. Use it to make pour-over hot coffee, steep coffee grounds overnight for cold brew, or substitute in loose-leaf tea for a lower-caffeine option. When your barista asks why you stopped coming around, you can tell them it’s nothing personal.
The measurements are: Dia. 2.8″ x H 9.1″, and it holds 12 oz. of liquid. Unfortunately is it NOT dishwasher safe, and must be hand-washed after use with a fragrance-free mild soap. But that’s OK, because it’s super easy to clean!
This cool gadget is a portable personal brewer! I’ve been on a cold-brewed coffee kick for about, oh, 20 years or so now, so needless to say it’s about damn time I had one of these! You just fill the stainless steel filter basket with your favorite coffee or tea, then screw it in and fill with cold water and let it steep, or if you are into hot beverages, just pour hot water over it, and away you go. Pretty handy!
To give you an idea of size. It is comfortable to hold (even with very hot liquid because of the double-wall), and it slips easily into larger tote bags if you are on the move. If your beverage is finished steeping, you can remove the filter, screw the lid back on, and use it as a drinking vessel as well!
MCT Coconut Oil CBD Tincture (100mg) by LiveWell Athlete (15 mL) – Retail Value $24
Description:
Derived from organic mature non-GMO hemp stock in Arizona, this CBD tincture is effective, quick-acting with high bioavailability, and worthy of a great cup of coffee or tea. CBD can reduce stress, help manage pain, and improve sleep quality. This particular CBD oil is blended with all-natural, paraben-free MCT (medium chain triglyceride) coconut oil, lending it a slightly sweet taste that’ll go great with whatever you put it in, from cold brew to soup to brownies. You can even hold a few drops under your tongue for thirty seconds before swallowing, or mix a few drops into a moisturizer or cream.
So why on earth would we want to combine caffeine with CBD oil?!? Here’s the reason:
CBD and Caffeine 101CBD is thought by some researchers to work with your nervous system to naturally help regulate pain, appetite, and sleep. Scientists aren’t yet sure exactly how this happens, but some believe CBD reduces the effects of processes that lead to pain and inflammation. Caffeine, on the other hand, blocks chemicals that make you feel drowsy, causing your nervous system to speed up and making you feel more alert and excited.
So in a nutshell, you’ll be wired for sound and feelin’ no pain! Yay!
I am no stranger to CBD oil and use it in my daily regimen for my anxiety, as well as for all of those aches & pains that come along with aging. Many of the different CBD oils I’ve tried taste HORRIBLE, so I was pleasantly surprised by this one. It has a very mild, earthy flavor and didn’t make me cringe at all. If you are unfamiliar with CBD oil, you can read about it here.
Burlap & Barrel Cinnamon Verum Shavings (0.3 oz.) – Retail Value $6.99
Description:
Once you try a bit of cinnamon in your coffee, you’ll never go back. Bright and sweet, with notes of molasses, oak, and raw honey, this premium cinnamon will complement the flavors of dark roasts and light roasts alike. The spice experts at Burlap & Barrel sourced this sun-dried cinnamon from a small farming cooperative in Zanzibar, off the African coast, and the depth of flavor far surpasses what you get from your standard grocery store cinnamon. Add some shavings to your next batch of cold brew as it steeps, or to a mug of warm coffee. You can also steep some shavings in hot water to make spicy cinnamon tea, or add them to a stew or chili.
These are delicious in cold-brewed coffee!! They are not as overpowering as most cinnamon sticks; they produce a more subtle flavor. I haven’t tried them infused in hot coffee yet, but now that it’s Fall, I’ll get on it.
So what do you think of the Bespoke Post “Mellow” box?!? It was right up my alley, so it gets a 5-star rating from me. The brewer is high quality, and I’m enjoying the flavors and benefits of the enhancement items. The total retail value of this box is $71.99 – so it’s a great deal for $45!
From the Bespoke Post Shop
The following are a few items I added from the Bespoke Post Shop to my box:
Kickback Cali Daze CBD Ground Coffee (Dark Roast, 120mg Nano CBD) – Retail Value $26
Description:
“OG Cali Daze is a low acidity dark roast made with single origin arabica coffee beans from Oaxaca, Mexico. It has undertones of brown sugar, nut and cocoa, as well as citrus and spice fragrance notes. The Cali Daze has more of a relaxing effect at 120 MG of active CBD per bag.
Size: 8oz. Bags
Total CBD/Bag: 120MG Nano | Feels Like: 600MG
Servings per bag: 16 cupsTotal CBD/Cup: 7mg | Feels like 35mg
Made from Hemp-derived CBD and contains 0% THC.
Shelf life: 1 Year”
OMG! Sooooo good. This is their dark roast with 5x more CBD, and that’s my jam. Dark and robust, yet smooth and relaxing. This was an incredible find for me!
This is my Kickback Ground CBD Coffee after steeping it in the SOMA bottle for 24 hours. A nice deep, dark color. I did not use any CBD oil with this batch because the coffee was already infused with CBD, but when I do use the oil, I add it in right before I drink it.
Here is the coffee in a container outside of the SOMA Brewer – you can see the color of the java better.
So there we have it! Coffee, CBD and Cinnamon – OH MY!
I hope you enjoyed my review, and look forward to showing you more from Bespoke Post very soon!
