Every year, as the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, one familiar thing returns to our shelves and our cups: Tala-la-la-la, our much-loved holiday blend. Despite its core coffees rotating each year, the release of this blend has become a true Tala tradition. It’s part celebration, part reflection, and entirely delicious.

Have you seen customers walking out of one of our cafes with a vibrant purple drink? Fascinated by the color but too much of a creature of habit to branch out? You are likely looking at the Ube Latte! With its recognizable purple color and its sweet, nutty flavor, the ube latte has gained quite the loyal fanbase over the years. But what exactly is ube?

We’re beyond thrilled to share our most exciting Colombia releases to date: Mastercol. This is a small but mighty lot—a natural-processed, single-varietal coffee sourced from just ten smallholder farmers across La Argentina, Oporapa, and San Agustín in Huila. It's a rare find, a dazzling combination of history, technique, and varietal, and we only have a small amount, so consider this your heads-up not to wait on trying this vibrant new coffee.
