The Delicious Organic Coffee Bean


An organic coffee bean means that only 100% natural flavorings (fruit & nut extracts) are used to produce flavored organic coffees. With the millions of coffee drinkers worldwide there is a rise in demand for not only organic coffee but also for organic flavored coffee. Many coffee growers have discovered alternative and safe ways to improve the growing process. They now use organic fertilizer and other earth friendly ideas to enhance and protect their plants.

Certified organic coffees must be grown, harvested, and processed without chemical pesticides and fertilizers. Farms that grow the certified organic coffee bean are tested for chemicals by an independent certification agency for three consecutive years.

Natural and organic are not interchangeable. Other truthful claims, such as free-range, hormone-free, and natural, can still appear on food labels. However, don't confuse these terms with " organic " Only food labeled "organic" has been certified as meeting USDA organic standards.

Why buy organic flavored coffee that may be a little more expensive? By buying organic you are taking into consideration it's growth and production and how it has a great effect on the Earth's ecology. Coffee is one of the world's most heavily traded commodities, second only to oil. It is the world's largest agricultural commodity. A beverage enjoyed by people the world-round,

By using medium roasted beans this allows the coffees' distinct, delicate flavorings to blossom on the tongue. You will enjoy the perfect meld of rich organic coffee accentuated by the delicious whisper of soft flavors of Dutch chocolate, hazelnut, Macadamia nut and vanilla .

Organic coffee growers in other countries are free from the dangers associated with working and living in chemically polluted regions. In organic farming cooperatives, streams and underground water supplies are not polluted with chemical fertilizers. Coffee growers do not suffer from chemical poisoning - an all too real side effect of growing coffee the traditional way.

If you study the history of coffee production you will discover farming methods that were used before modern insecticides and chemical fertilizers. These methods are gentle to the Earth and its people. By purchasing the organic coffee bean you demonstrate your commitment to protecting the environment and the people who are dependent on the coffee industry: the growers and their families.

Most of organic coffee growers are registered as rain forest alliance coops. Most of organic coffee beans are also shade grown. It is important to read the label to insure that you are purchasing organic coffee beans that are grown and purchased under fair trade conditions which means the farmers receive more of the revenues for themselves; this makes growing more profitable for them and they're less likely to grow elicit crops.

  1. Wow this is cool! I am wondering how much the shipping would be to CA. I am interested to see and taste this kind of coffee. I want to taste different kinds of coffee but a lot of friends told me that nothing beats organic coffee.
