The holidays are drawing near, and you’re thinking of what to get for your caffeine-obsessed friend. Finding the perfect Christmas gift for coffee lovers can be tricky, we know. Everyone who drinks coffee has their own unique preferences, from their go-to drink right down to the type of beans. Some love a clean pour-over, while others enjoy the rich taste of an espresso. For certified coffee buffs, they’ll even lean towards a particular flavor profile, whether it’s chocolate and nutty or floral and fruity tasting notes.
At Plain Sight Coffee, we've curated a diverse selection of beans, ensuring there's something for everyone! To make your choice easier, we've tailored recommendations based on your loved one’s unique personalities. Keep reading to learn more about our special holiday sets, perfect for your Secret Santa exchanges or as delightful gifts to share this season!
