Description
Boas Festas is our yearly marker that the holidays are upon us. This blend brings together our classic Doce with warm chocolate notes and a fan favorite, the Koke from Ethiopia, to create the sweet, cozy, and smooth cup that warms the soul. The notes of cherry cordial, sugar plum, and hot cocoa bring the essence of holiday cheer and good tidings to our morning brew.
This coffee is a staple for many and makes a great gift for any coffee drinker. With a ratio of 80% Doce and 20% Koke, the balance of Doce’s classic flavors and Koke’s fruity, bright notes create the ultimate blend that’s versatile for any palette.
