Alan Wake 2: Coffee World Stash Key & Container Locations

In the Coffee World of Alan Wake 2, there is a Cult Stash conveniently situated near the Huotari Well along the route to the Espresso Express. Perched atop this Cult Stash is a note bearing the enigmatic question, "what hides behind the smile?" These words hold the key to uncovering the elusive Coffee Stash Key in Alan Wake 2, and this guide aims to assist players in deciphering its cryptic meaning.

Located in close proximity to the Huotari Well, the Coffee World Stash can be easily found by players who follow the directions leading to the Espresso Express. Positioned precisely against the northern rock formation near the well, fans of Alan Wake can refer to the provided map for accurate identification.

Now that the location of the Cult Stash has been discovered, players can turn their attention to finding the Coffee World Stash Key. This key is necessary to unlock the container. Giving a hint from the note found on top of the Stash, the key is cleverly concealed "behind the smile," referring to the cheerful coffee pot mascot of Coffee World.

Although the mascot can be spotted in various places within Coffee World, such as signs, the most significant clue lies with the large coffee pot sculpture situated near the gazebo. Fans of survival horror video games should make their way up the wooden stairs and investigate behind this sculpture. The Coffee World Stash Key is hidden near the skinny tree on the sculpture's back-left side.
