The Coffee Lover’s Christmas Gift Guide 2025

Christmas is sneaking up fast, and if you’re looking for a gift that’s guaranteed to be the one everyone tries to steal at Secret Santa, coffee is always a solid choice. Great coffee, a personalised roast pick, a tasting pack, or a subscription delivered straight to their doorstep - it’s a fantastic idea that’ll have Nan’s knitted sweaters sweating. It’s the kind of present people actually use, especially during the holidays when everyone’s drinking a little more caffeine than usual.

Here are a few easy ways to wrap up something thoughtful (and caffeinated) this year.

Good Quality Coffee Beans for the Win

A bag of really good coffee beans is one of those gifts that never disappoints. Whether they love something bold and chocolatey or smooth and easy-drinking, fresh specialty coffee always feels premium without being over the top.

If you’re stuck choosing between blends or single origins, don’t guess. Get them to take our Coffee Quiz - or, do what everyone else does and judge your family member or friend and choose for them! If it matches the vibe, chances are it’s the blend for them. It’s a quick way to match flavour preferences, brew method and strength to the beans they’re most likely to love. Making things a whole lot simpler.

The Gift That Keeps on Giving - Coffee Subscriptions

If you want a gift with a bit more wow factor, a coffee subscription is the way to go. Instead of one bag under the tree, they’ll get a fresh batch delivered on repeat which I think is the ultimate “treat yourself” gift without any effort!

Perfect for someone who’s always trying new roasts, loves their morning routine, or goes through beans quicker than they can admit! You can pair the subscription with the Coffee Quiz too, so their first delivery is spot on.

Final Sip

If you want a Christmas gift that feels personal but still super easy, stick with coffee. That way you can avoid that awkward “thanks… an avocado?” moment. Grab a bag of fresh beans, set someone up with a subscription, or let the Coffee Quiz do the choosing for you. It’s thoughtful, practical and guaranteed to be used - which is more than you can say for half the gifts under most trees.

Stay merry and stay caffeinated!
