Fresh Gingerbread – Flavored Roasted Coffee
If there’s a coffee that can conjure up the Christmas atmosphere even during the summer solstice, it’s Fresh Gingerbread. Wanna try? Go right ahead! It smells like a winter evening, tastes like childhood memories, and warms like a wool blanket. The foundation is a mild, pleasant Brazilian arabica Santos with a drop of gingerbread flavor. The result is full of cinnamon, cloves, and honey.
Ingredients
100 % Arabica, AromaTaste & Crema
The taste of Fresh Gingerbread is slightly spicy and sweet with notes of cinnamon, star anise, and cloves. The light acidity of Brazilian arabica goes perfectly with the sweet aroma and creates a harmonious experience suitable for late mornings or sweet afternoon treats. Ideal for those who want a fragrant beverage that’s not overtly sweet.
Origins
The base Fresh Gingerbread coffee is a premium Brazilian arabica, namely Santos NY2. We brought it from the São Paulo region, where coffee trees are grown at an altitude of around 1,000 m. It’s to nobody’s surprise that the local arabica is one of the most iconic Brazilian varieties. It’s renowned for its smoothness, minimal acidity, and pleasant sweetness, making it an excellent base for flavored coffees and select espresso blends. It offers a clean flavor profile that doesn’t distract, but rather allows the added tones to shine through – in this case, the warm aroma of gingerbread.
Brazil has been the world's largest coffee producer for over 150 years. The cultivation of coffee trees (Coffea arabica) dates back to the end of the 18th century. Thanks to ideal climatic conditions, high-quality soil, and extensive plantations, the country quickly became a coffee superpower. Brazilian coffees are known for their full body, chocolate-nutty tones, and very low acidity. This is precisely why they carry both fruity and spicy aromas so beautifully. Fresh Gingerbread coffee is the only proof you need!
Incidentally, gingerbread also has a rather interesting history. Its roots date back to ancient Egypt and Greece, but it truly flourished in medieval Europe. During the time, gingerbread guilds were formed and even sold their products at their local markets, fairs, and monasteries. The name itself stems from ‘gingerbrar’, meaning preserved ginger, and later morphed into the suffix -bread.
At the turn of the 19th century, gingerbread cookies became the symbol of winter festivities and were given as gifts or used as Christmas tree ornaments. Their aroma is an integral part of the home atmosphere during Advent time. And it’s precisely this memory, aroma, and emotion that our gingerbread coffee will bring to you.
