Klatch Coffee recently announced the spring release of two limited-edition specialty coffees — the reintroduction of the Songbird variety and the Peru Geisha blend.
Klatch Coffee's Songbird is a multi-origin blend featuring Brazilian, Colombian, Ethiopian, and Panamanian beans. The brand addresses consumer feedback about affordability by lowering the price of this specialty coffee despite rising global coffee costs driven by tariffs, weather disruptions, and increased demand. Mike Perry, Klatch Coffee’s Roastmaster, shares about the launch: "By leveraging our direct trade relationships with coffee producers, we’re able to deliver incredible value, despite prices rising worldwide."
The simultaneous debut of Peru Geisha offers a different appeal. Packaged in a reusable 310-gram bag — which is nearly double standard Geisha quantities, this specialty coffee blend provides a shareable premium option timed for Mother's Day gifting.
