Mocha Mousse is the name, and that cozy feeling is its game.

The color experts from the Pantone Color Institute have spoken. Mocha Mousse — aka PANTONE 17-1230 — is the 2025 Color of the Year.

The company said it chose Mocha Mousse because of its warmth and richness + its ability to nurture us by suggesting “the delectable qualities of chocolate and coffee.” You know we love our coffee around here.

With Mocha Mousse on the brain, we decided to put together a deck of Nashville aesthetics that embody the Color of the Year — from stunning skyline pics to local businesses.
