Blue Bottle Coffee is ringing in the Lunar New Year with an exclusive set that brings together two remarkable blends, each with its own unique story and flavor profile. Inspired by the Blue Bottle café in Shanghai’s historic Zhang Yuan building, the Zhang Yuan blend is a darker, full-bodied coffee with a nuanced, softly fruited accent. With rich dark chocolate and blueberry jam notes, it evokes the charm and history of 1880s Shanghai, transporting your senses to another time and place.
The second blend, 17ft Ceiling, is a tribute to one of Blue Bottle’s original cafes in San Francisco’s Mint Plaza. This blend is a nod to traditional, blue-collar Italian espressos, with caramel, almond, and cherry notes creating a full-bodied, smooth profile that pays homage to the café’s roots. It’s perfect for those who enjoy a straightforward, classic espresso experience with modern flair.
These two blends form the Blue Bottle Lunar New Year Set—an ideal gift for coffee enthusiasts or anyone looking to elevate their brewing ritual. With a balance of nostalgia, history, and premium quality, this set offers a taste of two iconic locations and their distinctive coffee cultures. Available for a limited time, this set is perfect for celebrating the New Year with an exceptional cup of coffee.
