Does Hazelnut Coffee Have Nuts?

Hazelnut coffee is one of the most popular flavored coffees in the U.S., prized for its rich, nutty aroma and smooth taste. But does it actually contain nuts?

The answer: most commercial hazelnut coffees are naturally flavored with hazelnut oils rather than containing actual nuts. This means that the hazelnut flavor comes from natural, food-safe extracts added during the roasting process.

For example, our Hazelnut Coffee Beans start as specialty-grade Brazilian coffee roasted to a smooth medium and infused with high-quality natural hazelnut flavoring while still warm — creating a safe, aromatic, and indulgent cup without the use of whole nuts.

Benefits of Hazelnut Coffee

  • Nutty flavor without actual nuts — perfect for most people with mild nut sensitivities.

  • Smooth and balanced — medium roast brings out chocolatey and caramel undertones.

  • Versatile brewing — excellent for espresso, drip, French press, or pour-over.

Hazelnut coffee offers the aroma and flavor of nuts without the physical presence of nuts, making it a safe, delicious option for anyone looking to enjoy a cozy, nutty cup.
