Gifts for coffee lovers with large budgets

#1 Portable mini espresso maker

I will start this list with one of the very best gifts for coffee lovers who travel, a portable espresso maker!

Yes, with this gift coffee lovers can make a delicious espresso wherever they go. They don’t need to be in Italy for a good espresso, they can just be in the middle of the jungle or the north pole and still make a good and strong espresso, as they would get in Italy!

The only downside is the fact they need to bring Nespresso-compatible cups in order to use the espresso maker.

#2 Aeropress coffee maker

For camping and outdoor lovers who also love coffee, but who don’t want to bring Nespresso cups, this Aeropress coffee maker is the perfect gift!

It allows them to brew proper coffee even when they are out in the bush. So at least they won’t have to put up with the tasteless instant coffee!

#3 Portable cold brew coffee maker

One of the reasons why this list is called the best gifts for coffee lovers who travel is because it contains so many different types of portable coffee makers. Such as this portable cold-brew coffee maker.

Non-coffee lovers may not understand why there are so many different portable coffee makers. They may think coffee is coffee. But trust me, real coffee lovers understand the difference between a cold brew, espresso, or a French press (which you will find later on this list of the best travel gifts for coffee lovers)!

#4 Coffee beans from around the world

What’s even better about this portable coffee maker is that it can be used to make both hot and cold coffee. Though I never understood why anyone would want a cold coffee, but there are people who want that and with this gift, it is possible, without having to wait for the coffee to cool down.

The best books for coffee lovers

There are so many books that make great gifts for coffee lovers who travel around the world, that I couldn’t pick just one.

Some of the best coffee books in my opinion include:

#17 Personalized travel mug

I know, I know, I promised more unique travel gifts for coffee lovers. But I also admitted that travel mugs are super practical gifts. So I figured that of all the 25 coffee gifts on today’s list, one could be a little bit less unique, but super fun and practical.

So obviously, you could get a million different designs of travel mugs, such as one of their favorite countries, a fun print, a photo, or one with a personalized text.

#18 Turkish/Greek coffee maker

This portable and collapsible coffee dripper is perfect for people who love simple drip coffees and who do not have a lot of space in their luggage for the more luxurious dripper I mentioned earlier.

This one even comes with a clipper, so they can even hang it outside their backpacks!

The only disadvantage of this coffee maker is the fact that they still need filters for it to work (and coffee and water, but that’s pretty self-explanatory).
