BETTER BEANS
100% ORGANIC, FAIR TRADE, SHADE GROWN COFFEE
A smoky blend with a strong Guatemalan base, this coffee is roasted dark to accent its Central American characteristics. With a full flavor and smooth finish, the AEC blend is an excellent dark roast. All of Higher Ground’s coffees are Fair Trade, organic, and shade grown. Fair Trade certification enables the farmers who grow our coffees to keep their family owned farms and benefit from economic and educational programs, while growing a great organic crop. Our coffees are also grown in the shade of the forest canopy—preserving ancient forests and natural habitat for innumerable species of plants and animals.
