You are buying a 5 pound bag of our premium custom roasted coffee beans. These are 100% premium, Arabica beans (Tipica 80%, Caturra 20%). Great for your office's coffee club, restaurants or any other business that sells/brew coffee.
These beans were shade-grown in the higher altitudes of the Caranavi region of Bolivia, depulped and washed using pure Andes glacier-melt water, sun-dried on wooden table tops and hand selected by "Palliris" (Aymara Indian women food graders). These are not "commodity coffee" beans. These coffee beans have also been certified by the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center as "Bird-Friendly®". Unlike other coffee sellers, we give you the year of the crop, the specific quality grade, and the name of the farmer Co-Op behind them, not some meaningless, unsupported adjectives like "top grade" or "fresh". These beans are of one of the best, professionally-graded and cupped, premium coffees in the world. The Primera Extra coffee beans have a cupping score of 79.5.Because of its sweet, ripe tropical fruit flavor with hints of chocolate, refined acidity, good balance, and no aftertaste, we recommend a city or vienna roast.
