Coffee might be the easiest gift on your list. Almost everyone drinks it, nobody minds getting more of it, and it gets used every single morning.
The trick is matching the coffee to the person. Here's our cheat sheet, sorted by the kind of coffee drinker you're shopping for.
For the light-roast loyalist
They like their coffee bright and smooth, not heavy.
Gift idea: Hawaiian Islands, a light roast with Hawaiian Kona coffee in the blend. It comes in whole bean or ground, and there's a 28 oz size for the friend who goes through coffee fast.
For the bold-coffee purist
They take it dark, they take it strong, and they don't want anything getting in the way.
Gift ideas: French Roast or Black Velvet. Both come in whole bean or ground, so you can match the way they brew.
For the flavored-coffee fan
They think coffee is a treat, and honestly, they're right.
Gift ideas: Swiss Chocolate, French Vanilla or Cinnamon Bun. Cinnamon Bun is an easy pick for the holidays without being over the top.
For the single-serve household
They love good coffee, but mornings are busy and the single-serve brewer is non-negotiable.
Gift idea: The Coffee Joy Advent Calendar. It holds 24 single-serve cups, one for each day leading up to Christmas, so there's a new holiday flavor to open every morning.
For the one who keeps saying they want a better setup at home
You know the one. They talk about their favorite coffee shop a lot.
Gift idea: The Bean-to-Brew. It grinds whole beans with a built-in stainless-steel burr grinder and brews in one step, making a 2 oz espresso or a 6 oz or 8 oz cup. For a gift that's ready to go out of the box, the Full Barista Bundle adds three bags of our coffee and an induction milk frother for lattes and cold foam.
Not sure what they like?
Go with a blend most people love. Breakfast Blend and House Blend are easy, everyday coffees that fit just about any mug.
