Organic Bolivia Coffee

This exclusive coffee is a rare find—there is a limited supply of organic beans from Bolivia on the world market, and even more limited at this high quality. You’ll experience a floral, delicate cup with notes of lemon, black tea, and cherry, unique to the limited cultivation zone in the mountainous, lush Caranavi region.

La Montaña Verde is a model co-op in strong organic farming practices. Their coffee farms incorporate important practices that deliver high-quality coffee and simultaneously protect the soil for future productive harvests. Farmers manage this balance of current and future needs by managing up to 5 “age groups” of coffee plants on a given farm. They tend mature, high-yielding trees and also plant new trees regularly that will take time to bear coffee cherries. This thoughtful staggering ensures that newer trees will be producing reliably as older trees start to decline in output. The co-op also prioritizes beekeeping of a native stingless bee species, which helps in pollination of coffee (and countless other crops and plants that benefit humans and fauna). In addition to increasing coffee yields, the farmers also produce high-quality honey that can be sold as added income and is also used by farmers in traditional medicine.
