A welcome message from the Owners
Most coffee drinkers have never tasted a REAL cup of coffee. WHAT YOU SAY ??? This page will educate you regarding the true nature of the international coffee industry and show you that we are offering a unique product that you will not find anywhere else. Real coffee from specialty beans drinks like a fine wine and has a pleasant after taste that will keep your mouth lightly salivating for about 15 minutes after you finish the last drop. This delicate taste is affected by every step of the process from the types of plants to where it grows to how it is picked and processed to how it is packaged and shipped and finally how it is brewed. Take a few minutes to absorb our message and when you finish you will be completely disgusted and what you used to think was high quality coffee. We have limited amounts of our premium coffees in the insatiable international coffee market where entire nations are vying for vast amounts of this renewable product.
First, what is REAL PREMIUM COFFEE and why have you never heard of this before? Most coffee today comes from the Coffea Arabica varieties which was commercialized in the 1500’s in Ethiopia’s Kaffa region and spread through Yemen to become the dominant species grown today for the commercial market. The plant is a high producing plant, thus the use in the large international market. In the rush to the high production market, chemical fertilizers and herbicides have been employed and now chemicals are used to ripen the crop in one day for faster consistent harvest.
There was a time when quality coffee grew in the cool mountain regions of the tropical zones. But lately countries like Brazil have entered the mass market with tropical varieties which lack quality while reducing the price of production. The varieties have been subject to GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) and are not organic. These varieties are then mixed with better blends from traditionally coffee regions like Colombia.
All of this is covered by heavily roasting the beans, so the resulting brewed coffee product is the consistency of black mud (thus the nick name for coffee). The caffeine content is still there and this is what most people are literally addicted to. People then mix their brew with milk, crème, sugar or all sorts of additives to cover the acidy feeling and bitter after taste. That is what you get when you buy coffee today. It is simply a matter of economics and scale. You cannot expect exceptional coffee with the quantity demanded by the world insatiable appetite for that daily cup.
