A Macaroon for Your Mug

#358 Holiday Blend

12 oz whole bean medium coffee

A macaroon for your mug! When Seattle’s only Hawaiian-born roaster sets his mind to creating the perfect Holiday Blend, you know it’ll be a sip of paradise. Seven Roasters’s special, seasonal Holiday Blend begins with extra-fancy Kona beans, for a bold, nutty body. Classic, chocolaty Central American beans add depth and richness, and a hint of tropical fruit gives the perfect Hawaiian twist. We taste chocolate-dipped coconut macaroon in this medium-roast cup, and a balanced, strawberry-guava sweetness.

Nothing says holiday like a big plate of cookies, and chewy, coconut macaroons are a cookie classic. As with coffee, macaroons were likely invented in the Arab world over 1000 years ago, and traveled into Italy via trade. Our first reliable record of the macaroon can be traced to Italian monasteries in the 8th or 9th centuries. The cookie made its way from Italy to France, refined into today’s French macaron. It became a coconut confection in the late 1800s, upon the discovery that shredded coconut is more shelf-stable, and easier to ship, than fresh coconut. Like Hawaiian coffee, coconut is a special, island-grown, tropical treat; of course the two flavors go hand in hand.

With sweet notes of chocolate, coconut, and a hint of tropical guava, Seven Coffee Roasters’s best-selling Holiday Blend is a dose of Pacific Island paradise for your winter wonderland. Reserve a bag from our next freshly-roasted batch, and enjoy this sweet and creamy macaroon for your mug. Happy hula-days!
