Christmas at home never looks quite the same as it does in the movies. No snow, no crackling fires, just long warm days, backyard lunches, noisy families and the familiar scent of sunscreen and Aerogard. Perhaps instead of warm cocoa and marshmallows we have iced lattes and cold brew. This coffee actually has some of those familiar Christmas notes of spice and sweetness, making it the perfect yuletide coffee. This washed Colombia lot comes from the Campos Roa family, the same family behind some of our favourite coffees over the years. If you loved Los Campeones, you will find that same clean sparkle and effortless sweetness here too. This beautiful family has given us another gift this year and we are especially excited to share it with you. Grapefruit brightness to wake up the palate, a sweet custard warmth through the middle and a final push that lands squarely in Christmas pudding territory. Think dried fruit, soft spice and that comforting richness we pretend fits with shorts and Birks, not sweaters and boots. It is the best of both worlds. A Colombian Christmas through the lens of an Australian summer. Sunshine instead of snow, citrus instead of pine needles and a cup that feels festive no matter where you drink it. If you are looking for something to bring to lunch or something thoughtful to wrap under the tree, Papa Noel fits the bill. It works as a last minute regalito and as the brew that keeps everyone cheerful through the lively chaos of Christmas Day.
