The end of this year is a special one for Maison Soleil. While the entire coffee industry adapts to ever-stricter traceability requirements, we can say, with some pride: we were doing it before it was mandatory. Our campaign Direct Trade Africa, launched in June, is ending on a high with the festive season. And we designed our Christmas 2025 gift sets around that message.
The flagship gift set: Direct Trade Africa
The Direct Trade Africa Gift Set is the gift we recommend this year. It brings together our five African origins: the floral Rwanda of Terres de Nyungwe, the bold robusta of Côte d’Ivoire, the honey micro-lot from Cameroon, the fruity notes of Madagascar and the delicate Bourbon of Rives du Kivu. Every bag carries the name of the partner cooperative, the roast date and the GPS coordinates of the plot of origin.
It is a journey through French-speaking Africa, from Lake Kivu to the Malagasy highlands by way of the Cavally loop. Five countries, five processes, five ways of understanding that coffee is above all a story of terroir and people. Behind every origin lies a multi-year contract, a floor price and a relationship built year after year.
For every budget, every taste
The Prestige Gift Set pairs three rare origins — Rwanda, Cameroon honey, Madagascar — with our borosilicate glass carafe. Ideal for those who like to taste slowly, methodically.
The Limited Christmas Gift Set, true to itself, offers Ethiopia, Kenya and the « Torréfaction » candle in festive packaging. The Discovery Gift Set remains the best choice for introducing someone to specialty coffee without intimidating them.
And for the undecided, our gift cards of €25, €50 or €100 and theGift Subscription let the recipient choose their own journey.
A year of recovery
2025 was marked by the recovery of our sales in the second half, carried by growing recognition of our model. Our supermarket pilot, launched at the end of the year in premium urban chains, also lets us reach new coffee lovers — always with certified organic whole beans.
Giving a Maison Soleil gift set this year means giving more than coffee: it means giving proof that commitment holds the road, cup after cup.
Merry Christmas to all.
