We started the pursuit of developing a unique festive blend since 2014 and each year, carefully sourced and selected coffees are roasted and blended to not only highlight the deliciousness of each origin but also the greatness of our roasting team!  They have yet to fail us.

Through this journey, The Nutcracker was conceived and celebrated it's 11th edition in December 2024. We also successfully planned, R&D and launched limited edition blends in the likes of Katapult and Anniversary, exciting the audience with each new launch. After much deliberation, the team gathered and agreed that there should be a new espresso blend with each national festive celebrations and give glad tidings for the likes of Chinese New Year, Hari Raya, National Day and Deepavali. We named it - Festive!

In this edition of Festive Blend launching in February 2026, we will celebrate the Chinese New Year, welcoming Ramadhan, which also means Hari Raya is near. We took inspiration from our last year's roast for the Festive -National Day and sourced solely one origin from Ethiopia, from two different farms and processing methods - blending both coffee to create an espresso blend that is rich, sweet and juicy. Together reminding one of flavours of everything festive and comfort. 

Truly a blend to savour with your loved ones this festive season! From Dutch Colony to you, Happy Gong Xi Raya. Enjoy the back-to-back celebrations!

Roast date: 3rd February
