Preparation is key for navigating the holidays, right? This means for most of us at the top of the list: coffee. After all, what’s waking up to a leisurely day without a cup of greatness? Whether you’re visiting friends or family, one thing is clear: bring your beans along to wherever you’re spending Twixmas — or gift them to your holiday crew. They say the best presents are the ones you’d want yourself, no? If choosing between a smooth filter or bold espresso feels like picking a favorite cookie, Kreuzberg-based roaster Five Elephant has you covered with their Holiday Coffee Bundle, featuring the “La Nueva Montaña” filter, bursting with bright, fruity notes, and the “La Cancha,” a creamy-bodied espresso with a zesty edge. Or looking to upgrade? Coffee gear awaits at Five Elephant’s cafés and online shop! A sleek upgrade for your countertop? The Fellow Aiden Brewer, a filter coffee maker that combines top-tier performance with an all-black minimalist design. And for coffee on the move: I had a little “must-have” moment after seeing my friends whip up perfect brews on a Brandenburg trip with the Aeropress Go Coffee Maker. With or without the gadgets, the beans you get from Five Elephant are sustainably sourced, ethically produced, and roasted with care right here in Berlin while supporting projects like the school at Finca Majahual in El Salvador. To wrap it all up, why not go for a Five Elephant tote bag? It’s the perfect way to represent what makes every holy — and damn — day a sip better.
