Happy New Caffeinated Year 2026!

Carrie Masek

Hi best-of-the-best coffee fans! We did it- 2025 is over and 2026 has begun. Time to wake up a New Year with coffee! For a bold cup to wake up your year try Midwinter’s Brew, our Coffee of the Month for January. We also have an exciting new exploration coffee for those who are adventurous and a recommended premium-too-good-to-be-true coffee.

January’s Coffee of the Month, Midwinter’s Brew is a smooth, full-bodied coffee with dried fruit sweetness and a hint of spice, a bold enough drink to warm the coldest winter morning and smooth enough to enjoy an entire evening. Available all month in both full and 1/2 roast pouches.

January’s Exploration Coffee is Mexico Puebla-Chichiquila. From the volcanic region of Puebla in Eastern Mexico, this smooth, easy-drinking coffee features lively top notes balanced by nutty cocoa richness and mellow graham cracker sweetness. Roaster's Choice: City

Looking for the true best of the best? Try Brazil Cochoeira Da Gama. A single estate, microlot jewel from the highlands of Brazil. Naturally processed, Yellow Bourbon, heavy-bodied, creamy and sweet. 

Suggested Roast Level: Full City

We’re looking forward to finding more mind-blowing delicious coffees in 2026. What are you looking forward to in the coming year? Please join the conversation and share your thoughts on the Facebook thread or in a comment on this blog. Or, if you'd like to share your opinions 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!

And finally, to thank the readers of this blog, we’re offering a free 1/2 roast of Midwinter’s Brew with your first two roast order of the month. Just write, “January,” in the box for Additional Instructions on any two roast (or more) order and we’ll throw in the 1/2 roast pouch at no extra charge.

Also finally, Happy Birthday to Paul, our resident coffee expert!!! This New Year’s day is also his birthday so we hope he gets to eat his favorite Cherry Pie while drinking amazing coffee!

We wish all our customers a healthy and happy New Year.

~ Carrie, Paul and all of us at Coffee by the Roast
