This year's Holiday Blend was created with the pastries of Hungary in mind. In particular, the use of nuts and citrus. The roast is not too dark, and the blend of coffee beans from Brazil, Indonesia, and El Salvador, creates a tart, well-balanced flavor that reminds me of cranberry or candied citrus. This morning I drank some as I nibbled on a slice of stollen, which emphasized the bright fruitiness of the coffee and was a heck of a way to start my day.
Available through Christmas, then it's gone till next year.
