STARBUCKS CHRISTMAS BLEND

Each year, our rare, aged Sumatra gives Christmas Blend its heart and soul.

Flavor: Spicy and Sweet

Complementary Flavors: Orange, nutmeg, clove and cinnamon.

HACIENDA ALSACIA

The high-quality coffee so many of us love is getting harder and harder to grow, especially for small farmers that make up majority of the world’s producers. They’re dealing with rising production costs, weather change and diseases like coffee rust that can devastate an entire crop.

To better understand these challenges, and how to help these farmers, Starbucks placed itself in their shoes. In 2013, Starbucks bought its first farm: Hacienda Alsacia in Costa Rica.

The mission of this farm isn’t to supply Starbucks with coffee but to help ensure the future of coffee for everyone.

In celebration of our 20th anniversary, we are very much honored to have this Roastery exclusive coffee to share with our partners and customers.
