Best Holiday Coffees of 2020 [Updated]

With the holidays upon us, coffee lovers around the world wait anxiously for the release of holiday coffees. Part of why seasonal coffees are so highly sought-after is because of their limited supply and availability. In fact, some of the best seasonal coffee flavors make their debut for a few weeks only never to be seen again. The window of opportunity for these rare blends is small so acting promptly is key. Check out our list of this year's best holiday coffees and stock up on uniquely crafted blends designed to capture the mood of the season.

Whether you're looking for seasonal whole bean coffee or seasonal K-Cups and coffee pods, we've got your covered. If you're not in the mood to read through all the reviews, we've included the top 3 picks.

Seasonal Coffee – Ground & Whole Bean

Peet's Coffee Holiday Blend – Dark Roast

This year's holiday blend is a trinity of three exotic beans taken from South Ethiopia, Northern Indonesia, and San Martin Jilotepeque. This fusion makes for a superbly fragrant, deep, and rich coffee that captures the essence of what I seek in Holiday Blends. Each bean was selected for its unique qualities. South Ethiopian beans are known for their citrusy aroma, Northern Indonesian beans are tobacco-spiced and lively, and San Martin Jilotepeque beans are revered for their defined yet no overpowering chocolate flavor. If you're looking for strength, depth, and body in your coffee, then Peet's Holiday Blend is an ideal choice.

Out of the Grey Coffee Organic Pumpkin Snuggle – Medium Dark Roast

Next up on our list of best holiday coffees is a premium organic brand we've grown very fond of over the years. Unlike some brands that produce a one-hit wonder, Out of the Grey Coffee consistently produces mighty fine brews. Their seasonal Pumpkin Snuggle is no exception. A mix of Colombian Supremo, Guatemalan Antigua, and Costa Rican Tarrazu, this blend is made up of coffee beans sourced from the some of the best coffee-producing regions in the world. It produces a vibrant pumpkin flavor augmented by cinnamon and sweet brown sugar. Pumpkin-flavored coffees, like most flavored-coffees, tend to be lighter roasts so as to maximize the expression of flavor. However, Out of the Grey Coffee's Pumpkin Snuggle is a medium dark roast that offers the pumpkin flavor experience in the context of a bolder roast.

If you're looking for an low-acid extra and incredibly smooth medium roast for the holidays, we suggest checking out Maud's Holiday Blend. This seasonal coffee blend owes its deep earthen flavor to premium Sumatra beans that are used.

I particularly recommend Maud's Coffee to those who appreciate silky smooth coffee with no bite.

This light roast coffee packs a spirited punch with its distinct and recognizable spicy notes. This is one of the few Fair Trade seasonal K Cups on the market.

Maud's Coffee Pumpkin Spice Coffee Pods

In my opinion, one of Maud's Coffee's many claims to fame is that they produce an ultra-smooth brew. I don't particularly favor highly acidic coffees so it's no wonder that this is one of my favorite brands. Maud's Pumpkin Spice is a true classic with its warm medley of delicious spices including cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. When you combine such a smooth brew with these lively flavors, it's a seasonal k cup / coffee pod that can't be passed up.
