In the city the lights string through the tree branches, blinking on one by one, crawling down the avenues of storefronts, sweeping over the sprawl of pavement and footsteps and feet attached to legs attached to bodies draped with down coats and wool coats, fabric between skin and cold. Passersby flit between glowing windows, peering at mannequins in clothes more expensive than their own, at products of progress and industry. Dazzled by intrigue, compelled by the impending calendar deadline, the passersby become shoppers, coats come off of shoulders, are draped over arms. Perfume is in the air. Perfume like cocoa and pomegranate and starlight. Items pull from hangers and from shelves, fall into bags ofshimmering tissue paper, promising magic and transmutation.
 
And the dark sky has thickened, pocketed the city and its dueling lights into its cast of clouds. And the shoppers are tired, but there’s a thrum of energy in the crowds. It’s the year’s end, or maybe it’s the buskers on the corner and their red fingers grasping their instruments and their change, or the bells that might be real or in your imagination. The lights stringing through the trees will guide you along, just a little further now, not much further now.
 
Somehow, it’s December, and the holidays are evident on every street corner and in every product newsletter, and, soon, in your cup of coffee. Pollard is excited to announce our Holiday blend, made up of 2 Central American beans and an african bean roasted to prefectly balance one another. 
 
Tasting notes include  Orange,  Almond and Cocoa Nibs. This coffee works wonderfully in any brew method and will taste great through out your entire day as you are preparing for the holidays and gathering with your loved ones. 
 
This coffee will be our choice for the coffee/wine gift set on our Pollardperse.com website, and can also be purchased in 4 ounce stocking stuffer bags.
