"At Peet's, our beverage team crafts memorable flavors to capture the mood and taste of each season," said Jessica Buttimer, Vice President of Brand at Peet's Coffee. "Turmeric and ginger provide a natural zest that we associate with the fresh start of a new year; we think of them as a refreshing 'cup of Zen.'"

A returning favorite for more than 20 years, Ethiopian Super Natural is an extraordinary coffee known for distinctive notes of wild blueberries, white flower, balanced with a candied citron sweetness. This unique annual coffee begins in Ethiopia with hand-selected ripe coffee cherries, meticulously laid in a single layer to naturally dry in the East African sun. When the heat is at its peak, the coffee beans are shaded, and for two weeks the beans are monitored through the day to allow the sun's rays to bring out flavors as it dries. The result is out of this world, therefore, Super Natural.
