A Heartfelt Thank You From the Mendocino Coast
We are honored - and humbled - to share that Thanksgiving Coffee Company has been awarded the 2025 Readers’ Choice GOLD Award for Best Coffee in Lake & Mendocino Counties.
This one means a lot.
For more than 52 years, our roasting team has kept the fires burning here on the Fort Bragg harbor, crafting ethical, sustainable coffee as a daily practice of gratitude. To be recognized by our own community, our neighbors, and our longtime customers is the greatest award we could receive.
From everyone here on the Mendocino coast:
Thank you for your loyalty, your morning rituals, and your belief in small coastal craft. Thank you for choosing us, and standing with a small roaster with big convictions.
Not Just a Cup, But a Just Cup™.
Why This Award Matters
The Readers’ Choice Awards, presented by Mendo Lake Publishing Group, highlight local businesses chosen directly by the people who live here. There is no bigger honor than a community vote, because it reflects real relationships, real ritual, and real trust.
For Thanksgiving Coffee, this GOLD award celebrates:
- Half a century of artisan roasting on the Mendocino Coast
- Consistency of excellence across generations
- Our commitment to sustainable, ethically sourced coffee
- The legacy of Paul and Joan Katzeff, who helped build the specialty coffee movement
- You, our community that has supported us since 1972

![New Arrival of Byron's Blend]()
New Arrival : Byron's Blend
A new fresh shipment from the Corrales Martinez Family farm has just arrived to our roastery, and this coffee tastes great! This is one of our Single Origin coffee's and it has the destinct flavors and qualities from Los Piños in Nicaragua.
The Corrales family manages and operates 5 farms in Matagalpa and Jinotega, though finca Los Pinos in Aranjuez is considered their home base. This blend is a mix of the natural and the Maracatura varietals (a hybrid developed by Byron Corrales), and is light-roasted here at Thanksgiving Coffee in Fort Bragg, CA.
Byron's Blend Grown by the Corrales Martinez Family Farm
Located in the northern region of Nicaragua is Finca Los Piños. This region produces approximately 83.80% of the national coffee production and has exceptional agro-ecological conditions. They are located in the community of Aranjuez, belonging to the department of Matagalpa. Los Piños farm is part of the El Arenal Natural Reserve, at an altitude of about 1500 meters, where the waters that feed the great Apanas lake are born.
Corrales is a visionary farmer, and pioneer in the application of biodynamic farming practices to coffee production. Maracaturra is a truly exceptional coffee that’s more akin to its cousins in the highlands of East Africa than its neighbors in Central America.
Altitude: 15,000 meters
Processing: Natural and Washed, blended
Cooperative: Corrales Matinez Family Farm
Varietal: Maracaturra, Caturra, Catuai
