What Tank Coffee says about this coffee
Christmas Blend is our seasonal coffee, roasted for the colder months. Cacao, hazelnut, milk chocolate and vanilla sit at the front, with just enough citrus to keep the cup bright instead of heavy. It is smooth, warming and easy to share — the bag that gets opened when someone knocks at the door.
What it tastes like
Milk chocolate and hazelnut first, cacao through the middle and a soft vanilla finish, with a lift of citrus at the back that stops it becoming syrupy. Body is full, acidity is low, and the whole cup is built around comfort rather than complexity. It is excellent in a cafetière with something sweet beside it, makes a rich espresso, and holds its own in a milky drink.
How to brew it
Use a medium grind and water just off the boil for a cafetière, and give it four minutes before pressing. For filter, a medium grind and a slightly slower pour keeps the chocolate notes forward. As espresso, a slightly longer shot brings out the hazelnut rather than the roast.
Your grind, ground to order
Choose Whole Bean if you grind at home, or have it ground for Filter, Cafetière, Chemex, Aeropress, Espresso or Stove Top. We grind to order, so the coffee is ground for your brewer on…

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
How it sits among coffee in the catalogue
Tank Coffee describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, chocolate, citrus, nutty. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee in the catalogue; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
nutty is unusual here — 25% of coffee in the catalogue are described that way.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
