A gourmet coffee gift basket with a great
gourmet coffee goes over great with any special occasion.
Handcrafted gourmet
coffee gift baskets don't carry 'filler' coffee, instant
coffee, or decaf coffee. They usually have tea and coffees
that avid coffee drinkers really love to get!
Some of the typical gourmet
coffees that you can have placed in your holiday basket
are Sumatra Mandheling. This is one of the fullest body coffees
in the world, with low acidity, and a smooth taste. Another
great choice is Guatemala Antigua which is a rich and aromatic
coffee with a hint of spicy fruit. Panama is another great
choice for your lover at Christmas as it contains a natural,
creamy-flavour coffee with a subtle fruit finish. Kenya AA
has been offered in many corporate baskets because it is the
most popular of the African coffees with a distinctive winy
after-taste, full body and bright acidity.
Two other great gourmet coffees and teas that go great in
a gift basket are Rainforest Alliance Brazil and French Roast.
Rainforest is a favorite in Europe with rich aroma, mild acidity
and medium-to-full body flavor. French Roast is a dark, European
roast coffee with a light smoky flavor.
Gift baskets usually start with a beautifully handcrafted
basket and a handmade tray. Each basket can be lined with
a cloth, and the look should be suitable for later use as
a bread, or dinner roll basket. One of the favorite goodies
in a gift basket is a mug and chocolate coffee spoons. Some
people actually use them in their coffee!
Biscotti is another great addition to a gift basket and
a traditional dipping choice like Almond Florentine is an
age old favorite. People always like with huge pieces of well-roasted
almonds and a hint of cinnamon to go with their dip. Cookies
are often included and can be imprinted with anything you
like. Chocolate covered gourmet
coffee beans with a rich, dark chocolate and a crunchy
bean center are a great treat as are mints and candies in
tins.
With so many coffee
gifts to add to a basket, it is no wonder so many people
choose this gift for the holidays. Next time you are wondering
what to buy for Christmas, pick up a holiday gift basket online
with your favorite gourmet coffee. You won't be disappointed.
