What Are the Best Coffee Christmas Presents?
As the holiday season approaches (and black Friday coffee deals become a thing!), coffee-themed gifts are a great way to show someone you care. Here are a few ideas:
- Coffee Subscription Service: For ongoing joy, consider gifting a coffee subscription that delivers freshly roasted beans directly to their door. The Coffee Bean Subscription comes in 3, 6 or 12 month options, with 2 bags of amazing coffee beans (whole or ground to your specifications) every single month. These will be made up of different beans each month, giving recipients a chance to explore a variety of coffees. Plus, if you are giving it as a gift, you can add your personal message to let them know to expect two more over the coming months as well.
- Speciality Mugs and Accessories: Personalised or high-quality mugs, travel thermoses, and reusable coffee cups are great for coffee lovers on the go. These add a personal touch and are practical gifts that they can use daily.
- Portable Coffee Brewer: For coffee enthusiasts who already seemingly have everything, why not offer them the option of convenience without having to sacrifice quality? Portable brewers, such as the AeroPress and V60 make excellent gifts for coffee lovers. Both are lightweight, easy to pack, and allow for exceptional brewing even on the go. The AeroPress is highly versatile, ideal for those who enjoy experimenting with different coffee strengths and flavours; it brews a smooth, rich coffee in just a few minutes. Meanwhile, the V60 is perfect for pour-over enthusiasts, offering full control over the brewing process for a clean, nuanced cup. These brewers are ideal for anyone who wants to enjoy freshly brewed coffee anywhere, from home to the office or on outdoor adventures.
More Coffee Gift Ideas
Beyond the essentials, there are several other thoughtful gifts for coffee lovers that you may not have considered:
- Coffee Bag Apron: For the truly coffee obsessed, there is nothing more aesthetically pleasing than genuine coffee sacks. We’ve got the perfect present for them: hand made and utterly unique aprons made from real coffee sacks! We’ve got a few designs, but our favourite has to be the instantly recognisable Brazilian Santos apron.
- A hamper full of all their favourite beans, blends and accessories! Okay, so it might not be the cheapest option, but for the truly special occasions, watch their eyes light up when they open a hamper full to the brim with coffee based goodies.
- When someone loves coffee, they also may have a love for hot chocolate too. There’s no better way to make rich, luxurious hot chocolate (or a mocha, if you add a shot of coffee in there too!) than with meltable chocolate sticks. SImply place in a cup, pour over hot water and voila, instant cafe style bliss in a cup. Whipped cream and marshmallows optional.
Whatever you end up getting your coffee-obsessed loved ones and closest friends for Christmas, make sure that they have the very best coffee beans possible. By choosing The Coffee Bean Shop, you can rest assured that not only are they responsibly sourced and of the best quality, but that they will be freshly roasted to order. We roast pretty much daily in our family-run roastery in Kent, just before shipping out your order - meaning that your beans have the very best chance to taste as amazing as they are intended.
