Why Shade Grown Coffee?

Why Shade Grown Coffee?

Many people ask why shade grown coffee is important.  When you purchase shade grown coffee, you are supporting a sustainable product and helping to keep rainforests intact. Coffee that is grown in the shade is protected from harsh sun rays, and grows at a slower pace. This helps to keep the levels of acidity in the coffee at a minimum and produces beans with a lower caffeine content.

Shade grown coffee allows the true flavor of the coffee to come to the forefront, while the side effects of the acidity and caffeine are minimized, making for a more healthy coffee.
