We've used some of our award-winning coffees for this year's Christmas Blend, including Great Taste and Cup of Excellence Award (2024) winners! You'll find an incongruous mix of African acidity and a Central American sweetness to the cup giving that true flavour of the Festive Season on the palate. A touch darker in the nature than our usual medium SR profile, this coffee was blended to provide that extra spice on the taste buds, and with tonnes of Marzipan and Fruitcake coming to the fore, this one isn't to be missed on espresso (flat white, cappuccino etc!).

A classic omni-roast, it is also so good on your every day filter device, either the classic pour or aeropress for example, giving it a slightly lighter body, with the complexity of the lighter roast in the blend coming to the palate - here you'll find more red fruit, a touch of blackcurrant and that cherry feel to the cup, as well as the sweet marzipan goodness.

Not too different to the 'Rum' feel to last year's offering, with a touch of booze definitely findable on straight up espresso, it is a bold and dark coffee to keep you on the straight and narrow this November/ December; wrap up warm next to that log-fire and pour well 🥰

Roaster’s tip: Taste the full flavour of Christmas and the Festive Season! Brew this on espresso for its full flavour and effect! Great on filter too, with a more juicy body - go black or with a dash of milk to make the most of this spiced fruitcake feel to the cup, with a lovely almond cherry touch on the palate on second taste on both espresso and filter...
