Solo 100 is a science-led expedition. For the first time, research and technology can be tested in minus temperatures during a prolonged, solo project.
In 2024 Mark Wood will be dropped into the Artic ocean to be left alone for 100 days. His journey will progress south through Canadian high Artic for over 2000km. This will be the final journey of a six year filming project showcasing the importance of modern exploration.
Our Connection
We first met Mark at an awards dinner at Sheffield Cathedral in 2016. Inspired by his stories and his own desire for adventure- albeit in the warmer climes of the coffee growing countries- we struck up a friendship.
The Charity - Sherbourne Fields School
Mark's work over the past twenty years with students around the globe continues through his expeditions but he always has a special place in his heart for the wonderful Sherbourne students, close to his home City of Coventry.
All profits from the sale of this limited edition coffee will be donated to Mark's 2025 polar trip to Svalbard.
The Presentation Box
The limited edition presentation box includes a uniquely produced leaflet giving further information on Mark's adventure and Sherbourne School alongside our special connection. You are able to choose either 250g wholebean or 250 ground coffee.
The Recommendation
Enjoy this coffee exactly how you like it maybe outdoors in the cold but however you do you will be making a difference to a very worthy cause.
