For our Christmas subscription box, we’re bringing you San Ramon, the coffee we’ve used in our beer collaboration with our friend in Boundary Brewery. However, the star of the show lies in the coffee which we’ve once again introduced to to specially prepared Bushmills whiskey casks. We’re bringing you our Christmas coffee ‘La Virgen’ (tr. The Virgin) from our friend Juan Saldariagga in Antioquia and from whom Simon has just returned from visiting. The Virgin is a wonderful coffee offering loads of complexity however you brew it.

With notes of baked apples, plum & hops, we’ve added a subtle note of whiskey in the finish by reducing the moisture content of the casks by 5% more than we did two years ago. This coffee was too good to play with too much, and with it we’d like to wish you a very happy Christmas.
