What to Buy

Consider the type of gourmet coffee your friend normally drinks. Ask about their favorite flavors in casual conversation so you'll know what they prefer. Gourmet coffee comes with many distinctive flavors such as chocolate, hazelnut, Irish cream, white chocolate, cinnamon, white Russian, rain forest crunch, chocolate banana, mudslide, maple pecan, toasted almond, vanilla, roasted chestnut, raspberry almond, creme brulee, and even cookies and cream. There are hundreds of other blends, so that's why it's a good idea to find out what your friend enjoys most.

Some gourmet coffee retailers might offer special blends such as Brazil blend, Viennese blend, Custom House blend, or Breakfast blend. You may also see Italian espresso or other specialty coffees such as organic coffee, which is made of coffee beans grown without chemicals or artificial treatments.

Before Ordering

Before ordering a gourmet coffee holiday gift, be sure to get your friend's mailing address. Also, find out if they prefer decaffeinated coffee or regular blends. While shopping online, you can either have the gourmet coffee gift shipped to your friend's home, or purchase a gift certificate so they can choose their own coffee. If you're not sure what type of coffee to buy, a gift certificate to an online gourmet coffee shop will make a fantastic gift. You can include the gift certificate with a holiday greeting card to express your thoughtfulness and spread some cheer.
