Our 2026 Christmas Blend is a festive medium roast with notes of orange zest, dark berry, and milk chocolate. It starts with two sweet, fruity Ethiopian coffees, including a special anaerobically fermented Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. A nutty, chocolaty Brazilian adds depth, and Colombian beans complete the blend with a touch of red-apple brightness.
This year's Christmas Blend took a lot of sample roasting, cupping, blending and tasting before we were completely happy. The first few attempts were a little too citrusy; the next couple weren't festive enough. The next blends were getting very close, but were missing a certain sparkle that makes Christmas Blend such a beloved coffee. Once we arrived at the perfect blend, the immediate smiles from all the monks who tasted it showed it was finally the roast we were looking for.
