About
Nochebuena is the Spanish word for Christmas Eve, the night the whole family gathers around the table, and this is the coffee for it. We’ve blended coffees from Kenya and Guatemala into a cup that’s mellow and sweet, with yellow fruit and a lingering, candy-like sweetness. It’s easy to love and easy to share, one for after the long dinner and for every quiet moment you can steal around it.
