Devocion has released its limited-edition Holiday Blend for the 2026 season, available now through early January or until this year’s lots run out. The roaster ships green coffee from Bogota to Brooklyn in as little as 10 days, a speed that distinguishes it from the industry norm of six to twelve months. I find this rapid turnaround compelling because it guarantees peak freshness for every bag purchased during the holiday rush.
The blend itself
The mix combines two 100% Colombian lots from active harvest regions, one natural-process and one washed. Both are dry-milled in Bogota, shipped overnight to Brooklyn, and roasted to order. The result is a complex, full-bodied cup with notes of milk chocolate, orange marmalade, nutmeg, and mulled wine. Nothing is added to the coffee; the spiced, wine-like character comes entirely from the beans, how they are processed, and how they are roasted. I consider this approach clearly superior to artificial flavoring, which often masks bean quality rather than revealing it.
| Item | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Holiday Blend | $31.50 | 12oz bag, whole bean or ground |
| Espresso Set | $72.10+ | Three bags, currently discounted |
| House Blend Set | $95.95 | Four bags, currently discounted |
The blend is approachable for newcomers but layered enough for seasoned drinkers. It shines as pour over, cold brew, or espresso. One drawback is that the specific lot origins are not named in the release, leaving only regional context. However, the price point remains reasonable for the quality described.
Gifting options
Devocion’s Holiday Gift Guide includes curated bundles built around how the recipient brews. The Espresso, Pour Over, and Cold Brew sets contain three bags each, while the House Blend set holds four. A subscription option delivers freshly roasted coffee monthly for three, six, or twelve months at no shipping cost. Prices range from $75.75 to $303 depending on duration. For those seeking tangible items, the guide lists a WHOSMiNG x Devocion Travel & Coffee Bundle at $85 and a Konkretus Concrete Mug at $30. Flor de Monte Coffee Blossom Honey costs $26, and Dark Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans are $23.50. Hands-on classes like Espresso Basics and Latte Art are also available via gift certificates. I recommend ordering by November 23 for Thanksgiving delivery or December 21 for Christmas within the U.S. Orders over $50 ship free with U.S. express shipping, and a single order can ship to multiple addresses with personal notes. This flexibility makes it easy to manage team gifts without logistical hassle.
