Arrived May 2023. This is a high-demand item. We usually run out before the new crop arrives. Packed at origin in 60-kilo GrainPro® bags.
Unfortunately, unless you buy 4 FULL (132 lbs.) bags from our warehouses in NJ & CA we are forced to pass a warehouse fee of $49 per bag. It is cheaper to ship 3 ( without a warehouse fee) bags via truck (LTL), anywhere. This does not apply to smaller orders.
These peaberry coffee beans were hand-selected from each harvest in the farms of our long-term partner ASOCAFE. Peaberries ("caracol" in Spanish, also called caracolillo in Central America) are roughly 10%-15% of coffee beans that fuse into a single oblong bean inside the cherry, rather than separating into the two typical bean "halves", also known as "flat berries". They have a unique flavor, both because of the concentration of flavors in the cherry while growing, and because they roll around more evenly inside your roaster.
Retail sales (out of Salisbury) are certified by Baystate Organic Certifiers. Wholesale orders (132 lbs. and more) are certified by Control Union.
