Costa Rica Cafe Paradiso Shade Grown - SHIPPED DIRECT FROM COSTA RICA! - is produced from beans from small farms transitioning into organic farming. As fertilizers and agro-chemicals are not used, the coffee plants thrive from growing in the secondary forest. The migratory birds that are attracted help control pests and nourish the soil, as the forest conditions also fixate nitrogen back into the earth naturally.

Cafe Paradiso Shade Grown is good for the environment as it contributes to healthy soil and happy birds, and better for our health as chemicals are eliminated.
 
Growing in shade slows down the ripening process, so the beans become larger, stronger, and more deeply flavored. Gentle hints of wood and moist soil complement Cafe Paradiso Shade Grown’s complex, rich coffee, which also has a robust body, medium acidity and hearty aroma.
