In 2015 while doing a tour of a coffee Hacienda in the mountains of Adjuntas Puerto Rico, I was taught about the rich history of coffee production from the island. I was told that the quality of coffee from Puerto Rico is regarded as some of the best in the world, they even used to export it to European royalty and to the Vatican, for the Pope to drink. Something about being in the crisp air of the mountains inspired me to get involved. The owner of the Hacienda told me I can sell the coffee they grow. Puerto Rico Used to be the 6th largest coffee producer. Although production has gone down during the previous many decades the quality is still among the best in the world. Our goal is to help reemerge its coffee production potential by putting it in as many homes as possible for you to enjoy every morning. We have teamed up with family owned coffee farms in Adjuntas & Jayuya Puerto Rico. The qualities that make the coffee so good is because it is shade grown under plantain trees giving it the right amount of sun. The naturally rich soil full of nutrients for the coffee to absorb, the elevation of 2300 feet keeping the coffee cool, and we only use the ripe red coffee beans (also called coffee cherry's), not using the green unripe beans. Most importantly coffee pickers in Puerto Rico are paid U.S. wages making them and Hawaii the highest paying to coffee pickers in the world.
