What does Holiday Blend 2026 taste like?

Expect juicy fruit from the Kenyan beans, fudgy chocolate from the Guatemalan beans and a warm spice note from the Sumatran beans. The dark roast keeps the cup rich and full-bodied.

Is it a whole bean or ground coffee?

The blend is described by its origins and roast, not its grind. Check the bag for the grind option before ordering if your brewer needs a specific one.

How should I brew it?

Its dark, chocolatey profile works well in a French press, drip or as espresso with milk. Use water just off the boil so the spice notes don't turn bitter.

Is it the same as last year's Holiday Blend?

The 2026 edition is its own blend of Kenya, Guatemala and Sumatra. Treat it as a new release rather than an assumption that it matches earlier years.

Is it good for gifting?

It is positioned as a sharing coffee for the holidays, so it suits a gift for someone who likes dark, spiced roasts. Skip it for a friend who prefers light, fruit-forward single origins.
