The Ammo Tin Coffee Gift Set: the viral ammo tin bundle upgraded into a complete gift set and wrapped in the Union Jack.

What's in the box

• Genuine M2A1 steel ammo tin, 28cm x 18cm
• 4 x 227g bags of coffee: Red On!, Battle Prep, After Hours and Shots Fired
• 2 matte black Contact Coffee mugs
• Matte black Union Jack presentation gift box with the Contact Coffee Co. mark

The Ammo Tin Coffee Gift Set

The Ammo Tin Coffee Gift Set, the gift edition of our Coffee Resupply, is a coffee gift set from Contact Coffee Company, founded by two Royal Marines. It packs four 227g bags of coffee and two matte black mugs around a genuine M2A1 steel ammo tin, all presented in a Union Jack gift box. The tin is the real thing: military grade steel built to carry .50 cal ammunition, and it outlasts everything else under the tree. Once the coffee is gone it holds brew kit, tools, or anything worth keeping dry.

The presentation boxes came off the production line in September 2026, and the photos in the gallery are the finished article, not renders: matte black Union Jack outer, topographic-line inner tray, tin and mugs seated in their own cutouts.

A coffee gift that does not end up in a drawer

Most coffee gift sets and coffee hampers are a wicker basket and a couple of bags. This one is built around our Coffee Resupply, the ammo tin bundle currently viral on TikTok. The gift edition adds two matte black mugs and the Union Jack presentation box, so it lands ready to hand over: no wrapping, no assembly, and nothing in it gets thrown away. The coffee gets drunk, the mugs get used every day, and the genuine M2A1 ammo tin gets reused for years.

The Christmas gift set for men who are hard to buy for

If you are here in the run up to Christmas, this is the box built for the man who says he does not want anything. Coffee is consumable, the mugs are practical, and the steel tin sits so far outside normal gift categories that even the man who has everything does not have one. We ranked it against nine other options, including two by other brands, in our honest guide to the best Christmas gift sets for men, and it leads our guide to gifts for men who have everything for the same reason. Preorders ship from 1 October 2026, months clear of the Christmas delivery panic.

Four coffees, one steel tin

Inside the tin: Red On!, Battle Prep, After Hours and Shots Fired. The four core Contact Coffee blends, 227g a bag, roasted in the UK. Red On! is the strongest of the four and the coffee the brand is known for. Four different blends means the box suits whoever opens it, whether they drink one strong mug a day or get through a bag a week.

Founded by two Royal Marines

Contact Coffee was founded by two Royal Marines, and the Coffee Resupply this gift set is built on was ranked the number 1 best selling coffee on TikTok Shop UK in the week of 16 to 22 July 2026. The brand carries more than 1,700 customer reviews. See the full TikTok Shop rankings.
