2025 Holiday Blend Coffee Arrives for the Season

An annual tradition from the Coffee Company continues

Every year, the Coffee Company crew convenes to come up with a way to bring together some of the year’s best single-origin coffees in an exceptional blend. I look at it as something akin to a rock supergroup where each member has made great music on their own but still decides to get together with a handful of other great players for fun, to produce music they couldn’t create by themselves. The coming-together isn’t permanent—it’s a special short-term collaboration that creates some really cool outcomes!

This year’s Holiday Blend is a duo—beans from our long-time friends at Daterra in Brazil and also from Hacienda Miramonte in Costa Rica. The crew at the Coffee Company says this about the combo:

Their flavors are playing especially nicely together this year, leaving us with an unmistakable richness and smooth finish. Think toasted nuts, caramels, and a silky smooth texture. Comfort and joy in a cup!

I tasted the Holiday Blend in several ways recently. As an espresso, it was beautifully nutty. Brewed as an AeroPress, it was beautifully round and remarkably smooth. Holiday Blend from a Siphon pot was clear, lively, well rounded, nutty, and chocolatey in the finish. The bottom line is that however you brew it, the Holiday Blend tastes pretty darned good!

The Holiday Blend is designed to appeal to both serious coffee aficionados and those who are new arrivals to the specialty coffee scene. A bag makes a great gift. It’s a wonderful way to send a taste of Zingerman’s to a coffee-loving loved one or colleague and a beautiful addition to gift baskets! Enjoy it now while it lasts!
