Café Solar® is dried using renewable energy technology that eliminates the use of firewood and fossil fuels to dry the coffee harvest. Your purchase of Café Solar® will help to reduce deforestation of Central America's remaining forests.

This Fair Trade certified coffee guarantees that farmers and their families receive a fair price for their product. Our Fair Trade Coffees are certified by TransFair USA.

Our coffee is high-quality Costa Rican, organically grown using Integrated Open Canopy (IOC), which provides buffers of intact forest in addition to shade management for increased biodiversity and bird habitat. The coffee is grown in the highest elevations; it is cultivated entirely without pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers. It has a balanced rich flavor with bright fruit tones and a spicy sweet finish.

Freshly roasted, our Café Solar® is available in Medium or French Roast (whole bean or ground), and in Green Beans for those who prefer roasting their own.
