Happy Holidays!
Carrie Masek
It’s already December and the Holiday Season has begun. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, the Winter Solstice, Kwanzaa or just enjoy ringing out the old year and bringing in the new, December is a great month for coffee! Here are some of the ways we’re celebrating this year:
With Holiday Spice. Our Coffee of the Month for December is a silky, full bodied coffee with a sweet aroma and complex flavor, lively fruit notes, Baker’s chocolate and a hint of sweet spice. Holiday Spice is available in both full roast and 1/2 roast pouches all month.
By helping others while sharing great coffee. Our Exploration Coffee this month is Safe Water Coffee, a rich, light and lively blend of Kenya AA and other outstanding African coffees. Lively citrus notes balanced by lemon blossom sweetness and a lingering cocoa finish for the best of Africa in a cup. Safe Water Coffee will be available in full roast and ½ roast pouches all month. Even better, a portion of each sale goes to provide clean, safe water to families living in Nairobi's Mukuru slum. For more information, click here.
With Coffee Gifts. Share the coffee you love! Whether it’s a 9 oz pouch for everyone on your gift list, a roast of your favorite single origin coffee for a special coffee lover, or a Coffee Club Subscription for a gift that keeps on giving, coffee makes a great present.
With Taking the Hassle out of Your Holiday. Order coffee gifts and let us mail them. Just send us the list of names and addresses (along with who should get which coffee), and let us know when you’d like the coffee to arrive. Please remember to click on We Mail YOUR Gifts, to add postage for the extra addresses (the first one is included automatically) and we’ll take care of the rest. Please allow us a few extra days to process your order and to give the USPS extra time to deliver it.
With Taking Time off with Family. We will be closed Christmas Eve (Tuesday, December 24) through Thursday, December 26. Any orders we receive after noon on Monday, December 23 will be roasted and mailed on Friday. Please order your Christmas coffee early (by December 16, if possible), so you have plenty for Christmas morning.
With Sharing Coffee. To thank you for reading this blog, we’re offering a FREE 1/2 roast of Holiday Spice with your first order in December. Just write “December” in the box for Additional Instructions. We’ll include the 1/2 roast at no extra charge. Sharing coffee is our favorite way to celebrate the holidays!
How do you celebrate the holidays? Please can share your thoughts on the Facebook thread or in a comment on this blog. Or, if you'd like to share your opinion with the wider world, leave us a coffee review on Google or on your favorite review site. Not only do we value your opinions, but reviews help more people find us. Help us connect coffee lovers to fresh, quality coffee!
Thanks!
Have a wonderful Holiday Season!
