The 2025 Recap: Our Top-Rated Coffees You Need to Try Before Year’s End
2025 has been a big year for us at Blackout Coffee. We rolled out new packaging, added more ways to brew, and watched thousands of reviews roll in from coffee lovers across the country.
So as the year wraps up, we wanted to create a quick 2025 coffee recap: the top-rated Blackout Coffee blends our customers kept coming back to again and again. If you’re looking for your next favorite strong coffee, everyday medium roast, or a bold patriotic blend to try before the year ends, this list is for you.
How We Chose Our 2025 Standouts
We didn’t just pick our personal favorites. For this recap, we looked at:
- Our Best Sellers collection, where you’ll find roasts with thousands of reviews and repeat customers.
- Recent customer reviews across our site, where you tell us which coffees you can’t live without.
The roasts below consistently showed up as top-rated, most-reviewed, and most re-ordered in 2025. Think of this as the greatest hits album of Blackout Coffee.
1. Brewtal Awakening – America’s Strongest Fresh Roasted Coffee
If 2025 had a “loudest and proudest” coffee, it’s Brewtal Awakening. This is our strongest coffee, a dark roast crafted to deliver a bold, full-flavored cup that’s naturally loaded with massive amounts of caffeine and antioxidants.
• Thousands of 5-star reviews and one of the top spots in our Best Sellers lineup.
• Perfect for heavy-hitting mornings, night shifts, workouts, or anyone who wants coffee that actually kicks.
• Great brewed as drip, French press, pour-over, or even espresso-style for intense flavor.
If you haven’t tried Brewtal Awakening yet, this is the must-try dark roast before the year ends.
2. Morning Reaper – Our Best-Selling Medium Roast
If Brewtal is the hammer, Morning Reaper is the precision tool you reach for every single day. Morning Reaper is our best-selling medium roast, crafted for coffee lovers who want bold flavor without bitterness. It’s smooth, balanced, and never acidic.
• Described as “super smooth” with an “ideal mix of strong flavor and caffeine kick.”
• Available in whole bean, ground, and pods, so you can brew it any way you like.
• Constantly highlighted in reviews as an everyday “go-to” roast for home, office, and even restaurants.
If you want one Blackout Coffee that works for everyone, from new customers to hardcore coffee drinkers, Morning Reaper is the 2025 winner.
3. Pitch Black Espresso – For Espresso Die-Hards
No 2025 top-rated coffee list would be complete without Pitch Black Espresso. Our customers consistently call this one of their favorite blends, especially in reviews that highlight its strength and flavor in espresso machines and pods.
• Built for espresso, moka pot, and concentrated brewing.
• Frequently praised for having strong flavor without tasting watered down, even in pod form.
• Perfect base for lattes, mochas, and all the coffee recipes we’ve shared on the blog this year.
If you love espresso drinks at home, Pitch Black Espresso is a 2025 essential.
4. Instant Coffee – Shockingly Good Convenience
This year, a lot of you discovered (or rediscovered) our Instant Coffee, and it quickly climbed into our Best Sellers list.
• Premium instant coffee designed to actually taste like freshly roasted Blackout Coffee, not typical instant.
• Perfect for travel, the office, or those nights when brewing a full pot isn’t necessary, something our reviewers mention often.
5. Holiday & Flavored Favorites – Winter Wonderland, Peppermint Mocha & More
2025 was also a big year for our holiday and flavored coffees. In reviews, flavors like Winter Wonderland, Peppermint Mocha, Eggnog, and Blueberry Crumble get a ton of love, often called “all-time favorites” and “delicious with every sip.”
• Winter Wonderland Flavored Coffee, praised for unbeatable quality and taste.
• Peppermint Mocha Flavored Coffee, reviewers say it tastes like “minty chocolate” and call it one of their #1 flavors.
• Blueberry Crumble Flavored Coffee - often mentioned as an “all-time favorite” with bright blueberry dessert notes.
