The name comes from Gil Scott Heron's song and album of the same name. The song isn't celebratory: "People know that something's wrong..."

But it's the holidays and you can give coffee however you like.

This year's blend is a mix of washed coffees from Luis Joaquin Lovo in Nicaragua and Irma Pacheco of Mataquescuintla. Big milk chocolate and more subtle dried fruit and almonds.
