Coffee Bean Direct is now roasting Puerto Rican Hacienda Monte Alto. It is a very high-quality estate coffee that we are roasting light to preserve its excellent flavor characteristics. Also available in 1lb bags.
We are getting a tremendous response for our Acai Wulong Tea. This flavored tea uses wulong tea leaves as its base and we add real acai berry and flavoring.
Finally, we have secured another supply of Colombian Mesa De Los Santos coffee. We are currently roasting this coffee as a City Roast and a Dark (french) Roast.
February Valentine coffee flavors are now online. Additional flavors are available in 1lb bags. You can also get a special Valentines Day Coffee Sampler containing even more unique flavors.
