Description
- 100% Liberica variety coffee beans grown with dedication by small-scale farmers in tropical lowland forest areas in the Philippines;
- This coffee is a rare and unique pleasure for coffee enthusiasts and anyone tired of the monotony of Arabica beans in coffee culture;
- An heirloom coffee variety once near extinction and now at less than 3% of global coffee consumption;
- Less caffeinated than Arabica and Robusta yet far bolder and complex in taste;
- Liberica Dark Roast has a taste that is alive, dimensional, and kicks around the palette that coffee lovers want. It is not sour, not acidic, not bitter, and not oily. Rather, it is remarkably balanced and smooth. Its most notable characteristic is a whisper of spice, and a tinge of orangey tartness under the tongue, in the after-taste.
Flavor Name: Dark Roast Barako Beans I Size: 17.6 ounces (1 polyethylene package)
If you want something different and unique in your coffee experience, like a craft beer versus an industry lager, then you want Liberica beans. Long minimized by industry growers because it requires more time and labor to produce. The truth is that this now rare coffee variety offers more taste than Arabica and Robusta beans. Preserved by family farmers in the Philippines for local traditions, Liberica coffee evokes the farm and the forest, handcraft, and heritage.
Help us to save this heirloom coffee variety from extinction, and to make our coffee culture more diverse and vibrant.
