Festive flavour coffee and ready-to-give gift sets? It’s how we say ‘Merry Christmas, coffee lovers’!
Freshly roasted, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la, la, la!
The chestnuts are roasting on an open fire… and guess what else is? Our top-scoring speciality beans! Okay, we’re not using log fires (Rosie the roaster does a much better job), but we are roasting the best, single origin speciality beans. And they trump chestnuts any day.
Christmas is a time for quality. Pop those weekly staples back in the cupboard, because we’re going all out with fancy tipples and treat-me chocolates. Just don’t let your caffeine fix miss out on the fun – pop some speciality coffee in their stocking this December!
But speciality coffee is a bit different from its Christmas table cousins. While some festive foods get a bit gimmicky (chocolate orange cheese, anyone?), we stick with the good stuff here at Two Chimps. Freshly roasted single origin beans that always score 80 points or more on the Q Graders’ scale. That’s what we’re about, whatever the time of year. We’re serious about proper coffee but fear not, we always keep it fun! And what’s more fitting than a corny coffee pun at Christmas and the Brew Year? ?
Pop our limited-edition Christmas coffee in their stocking!
Fancy channelling the festivities into your brew? Then pop a bag of our limited-edition Christmas coffee in your basket. It’s been Santa’s go-to this December (we asked the elves).
Merry Chimpmas like a Christmas party with all the best guests. Candy-sweet marzipan flavours mingle with Black Forest Gâteau acidity and creamy chocolate warmth. Totally festive and totally fabulous. Treat yourself or buy a bag for their stocking. Looking for Secret Santa ideas? Here you are (and under £10, too!).
We sourced these Christmas coffee beans from the Kateshi and Isanya Estates in the Northern Province of Zambia. Both estates have pretty cool histories: the Kateshi farm was one of the first coffee-growing locations in Zambia, while the last shot of World War One was fired only a stone’s throw from the Isanya Estate.
And the coffee? Oh my, it’s AWESOME. The high altitude climate is just right for coffee growing and the plentiful supplies of fresh water allows the growers to process the green beans directly on their estates. The Kateshi Estate also prioritises women’s rights by giving female workers the chance to take on male-dominated coffee roles such as tractor driving. It is the first and only estate in Zambia to do this.
Christmas Coffee Gifts
Put something special under the tree for coffee lovers this year. Whoever’s on your gift list – from the Arabica expert to those who just love a good brew – we’ve got a Christmas coffee gift they’ll adore.
Quality Street move over, because here’s the only selection box we want this Christmas!
Our Coffee Lovers Taster Pack is perfect for those who don’t like choosing. Know someone who wants a toffee and strawberry crème? Someone who can’t decide between mince pies or yule log? This one’s for them. Six treat-sized packets of speciality coffee accompany a Two Chimps tin and handy magnet (great for fixing your coffee label to the fridge). This is a great set to give to coffee newbies, too. We include coffees from various origins and a range of different roast styles, so they can sample them all and choose their fave!
Every household has one – the tinkerer. Come 4pm, when the turkey’s gone and Queenie’s finished her speech, they start to get a bit restless. Keep them occupied (and out from under your feet) with this awesome Coffee Grinder Gift Set.
The set includes a Hario hand grinder plus some freshly roasted beans, so they can get going straight away! Grinding at home is the best way to maximum freshness. It’s also a great way to explore how grind size affects flavour, and find a grind size that makes your best. brew. ever.
Here’s one for those who have been really, really good this year. Put stocking fillers away, because here’s a coffee hamper for going all out at Christmas. What’s included? Plenty of coffee goodies, including a coffee tin, mug, coasters and earth positive T-shirt plus EIGHT full-sized bags of coffee ground to suit your brew method or left as whole beans.
Sorry Santa, you’re going to need a bigger sleigh.
Failsafe festive service
Don’t let online ordering take the fun out of Christmas. Buy your pressies from Two Chimps and relax, because their coffee is on the way! We dispatch every order First Class and free of charge, no matter what you order or when you order it. Picked up a gift set to give to them yourself? Set up a gift subscription to go straight to their door? Yep, we’ll always deliver it free of charge! See it as a little treat from us to you.
Here at the treehouse, head chimp Andy will be roasting right up ‘till the big day. Last-minute gifters rejoice, because you’ll receive freshly roasted coffee, too! Rather than roasting in bulk once a month, we roast in small, 12kg batches multiple times each week. This means you can look forward to dazzlingly fresh, unbelievably delicious coffee whenever you place your order. Early November or third week of December, your coffee will always be fresh ‘n’ fab!
Christmas Coffee recipes
Impress your guests with homemade coffee drinks perfect for frosty evenings. Treat the grown-ups to an indulgent, cream-topped Irish Coffee and warm up the country walkers with a Pepamyntee Hot Chocolate (it’s made with real mint tea!). Or why not combine the classic creamy eggnog with coffee in an oh-so-warming Eggnog latte? Rum, cream and sweet Kahlua … well, it is Christmas!
If your sweet tooth has finally reached its limit with chocolate no. 18, then why not make a warming coffee stew for all the family? Rich, hearty and coffee-infused, it’s perfect for chilly evenings spent in bed socks. Grab a bowl!
Watch out, tinsel. Move over, turkey. Because we think coffee will be the star this Christmas!
