Product Description Grown by Members of the POSI Cooperative who live in 23 communities in Motoziotla and Siltepec in Chiapas, Mexico. Strictly high grown at altitudes between 1200 and 1800 feet and wet processed. This coffee has a full, rich flavor with a bit of sweetness like a premium Hawaiian or Guatemalan coffee. Best for a Light to French roast, as some of the more delicate bright notes are lost in a darker roast, but it does roast well to the darker stages. We are committed to providing only Fair Trade certified green coffee. Purchasing Fair Trade guarantees the growers were paid a fair and living wage for the coffee they labored to produce. All of the green coffee we sell was purchased in small lots of only the best quality arabica beans. This green coffee must be roasted before it can be made into a coffee beverage. We recommend roasting with a home coffee roasting appliance such as the FreshRoast Plus, also available from Seven Bridges Cooperative.

A bit dated? May 16, 2007 Roy G. Ashley (Behind The Pine Curtain, TX) Some experts say processed, green beans will keep up to 2 years prior to roasting. These beans did not have that "fresh cut wheat field" aroma typically associated with fresh green beans. My guess is they may have been nearing the 2-year shelf life.
In fairness, the roasted beans were still far better than anything offered by Fivebucks, err I mean Starbucks or most commercially available roasted beans. For the price this was a good value.
