Budding at-home brewers won’t be left out, of course. This year, Starbucks is introducing 3 coffee blends to help you unleash your inner barista. 

The Starbucks Christmas Blend (Whole bean – P595, VIA – P450, Origami – P450)  is a dark roast of beans from Guatemala, Colombia, and Papua New Guinea to back up the rare aged Sumatra beans. Starbucks describes this as “a spicy and sweet” blend. 

The Starbucks Christmas Blend Espresso Roast (P595), meanwhile, is a darker version of the Christmas Blend made especially for espresso. 

The Starbucks Reserve Christmas 2020 (P696, only in Starbucks Reserve stores) is a mix of 3 rare coffees that result in a “delicate butterscotch sweetness.” – Rappler.com
