Audubon Premium Shade Grown Coffee, Breakfast Blend Whole Bean Coffee, 12-Ounce Bags (Pack of 3)

Just the aroma is enough

I’m so glad I tried this coffee. I love my morning coffee time, and truly enjoy a good cup of coffee. I personally like dark roast flavors. This coffee’s aroma right in the bag was enough to make a believer out of me. I prepare my coffee in a french press, and this coffee does well with it. It has a deep, rich flavor with overtones that leave that smooth taste in your mouth. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was less acidic. I heartily support the ecology of how and why it is grown in the shade jungle.

Conservation by the Cup

This is a great tasting coffee. I’m three quarters through my first bag and love it. Even better, shade grown coffee helps our migratory birds and also provides richer resources for farmers. How? Shade trees often produces secondary fruit or nut crops as well as firewood from falling branches. The trees provide homes for birds and other wildlife that eat insects allowing for fewer if any pesticide use. (This particular coffee is organic, so that’s no pesticides, of course.) Likewise, the leaf litter helps fertilize the coffee plants. The shade also allows the coffee to mature naturally in a slow manner providing for better flavor. It also means you usually need to use less coffee than the regular can coffees bringing the cost closer to what many people are used to paying.
