‘DOLIG ‘24
Joy in a Cup
It’s official, we have declared it Christmas time so get the trees out, put the lights up, and turn the kettle on because our annual Christmas blend is back, and we couldn’t be more excited to share this one with you. We always try and find coffees that have Christmas-like qualities to them, and this year we’re excited that they come from two different coffees that stem from relationships and partnerships we have been developing over the last twelve months.
The first component of this year’s blend is Colombia Suukala, a favourite of ours that continues to impress, especially their latest harvest which has a deliciously rich dark chocolate, cherry and toffee notes – we couldn’t help ourselves. We’ve enjoyed sipping this sweet single origin all year.
We’ve paired it with a coffee from Burundi, which has given us a chance to work with a producer we’ve had our eye on for a while – Migoti coffee company in Burundi. We’ve long been aware of Migoti through our connection to East African Specialists Omwani Coffee; Migoti are some of the region’s best at producing amazing quality naturally processed coffee, and we’ve managed to get our hands on their ‘Nyabiraba’ lot. We loved the coffee’s strong cherry and cinnamon notes, paired with an amazingly boozy body – it was a no brainer.
We really like where our Christmas blend has come from this year, and importantly we love how it tastes!
We taste..
· Without milk: Juicy cherry liqueur, red berries, marzipan, rich dark chocolate, Christmas spices
· With Milk: Cherry Bakewell tart, white chocolate
Whether it’s served by the tree on Christmas morning or with a mince pie after Christmas dinner, we hope that our Christmas Blend helps make your Christmas feel just a tad more special.
