Forget the eggnog hangover; this is the fuel you actually need this December. The Hard Lines Festive Blend Coffee (£13.50) is described by its creators as “a big, sticky kiss under the mistletoe,” which is certainly more appealing than explaining your regrettable office party decisions. This blend—a sophisticated 60/40 mix of washed Colombian brightness and rich, natural El Salvadorian chocolate—delivers sweet, juicy notes of milk chocolate, orange, and caramel. It’s basically Christmas dessert compressed into a caffeine delivery system. Perfect for sharing with the family, or, more likely, hoarding for a solo cuppa to power you through the existential dread of gift wrapping. It’s giving rich, deep, luxurious chocolate orange.
