Why Are They Remarkable Gourmet Coffee Beans?

Volcanica Gourmet Coffee Beans are cultivated at heights of 3,000 to 7,000 feet on the slopes of mountains formed by volcanoes over the centuries. The volcanic soil and high elevation adds a unique and smooth flavor, not a stronger taste as some may suspect. These volcanic coffee beans can only be found in few areas of the world. It's not by coincidence that these same areas are also home to tropical rain forest regions where exotic plant and animal species thrive. The result is a premium gourmet coffee and a connoisseur's delight. When you first open a bag of Volcanica Gourmet Coffee the aroma will hit you. On your first sip the difference will be in the rich flavor enveloping your senses and lost in the incredible flavor. We state that our gourmet coffee is an exotic experience because it truly is remarkable coffee unlike any you have ever tasted.

This is not like your store bought coffee that has been sitting on a retailer's shelf for untold months. The problem is that soon after roasting, the beans become stale and lose their flavor. Store bought coffee, grocery store whole bean hoppers, and even popular gourmet coffee shop brands have been roasted months ago and have been slowly deteriorating on the shelf. Unfortunately many people do not know how gourmet coffee is suppose to taste because we have become desensitized to accept a below average grade without even knowing it. Volcanica gourmet coffee beans are freshly roasted and shipped quickly via Priority Mail for minimal impact from the elements and at a low cost to our customers. We also use one-way valve foil coffee bags to preserve freshness which removes air from the coffee beans for preservation. You will find that Volcanica Coffee is not only the freshest brand but also the most exotic tasting gourmet coffee in the world. Learn how fresh gourmet coffee beans are suppose to taste and give Volcanica Coffee a try, browse our store's selection of Volcanica coffee beans and discover the difference.

Please compare our prices as we sell a 16 oz. (one full pound) and 12 oz bags of gourmet coffee beans for the price retailers and other online retailers sell smaller sizes. Also compare shipping rates. You will find that many online retailers charge over $7 to ship one small bag of coffee while for a limited time we are offering free shipping for orders with four or more bags of coffee. We do not believe in making a profit on shipping and handling and only pass our actual cost of regular shipping on to you.

Volcanica Gourmet Coffee Beans are grown with respect to the farmers and in harmony with nature with minimal impact to the surrounding tropical rain forests. Our coffees from Costa Rica both the Volcanica Original Costa Rica Coffee and the Volcanica Reserve Costa Rican Coffee are Fair Trade Certified and Rain Forest Alliance Certified. These are premium gourmet coffee beans so we pay prices far above normal prices and protect the famous rainforests of Costa Rica. This allows the families of our farmers to earn a respectable living. Often world coffee market prices force farmers to earn only pennies per pound which causes them to live at the poverty level. All of our gourmet coffee beans are grown on farms that preserve the surrounding vegetation and tropical rainforest which aid in providing shade and nutrients to coffee plants. Find out more on the pages listing these coffees.

Our selection is limited because we only offer the finest gourmet coffees from specially selected volcanic regions. We have found that even within single origin countries the coffee quality varies by the region where the beans are grown. This is mostly attributed to the elevation and soil where the coffee is grown. We have search and cupped gourmet coffee beans from several farms in many countries and have limited our offerings to only the ones that meet our stringent quality standards. If you are looking for cheap or inexpensive coffee you have come to the wrong place. If you are ready to experience a remarkable taste that you will never forget, then dive in and shop our gourmet coffee beans.

Volcanica Gourmet Coffee Beans are single origin coffees which means that you are getting high quality 100% pure Arabica gourmet coffee beans from the respective coffee estates in the respective volcanic coffee mountain regions. We do not blend our coffee with cheaper and lower quality beans that are usually found in most other coffees. The majority of your retail store brands are cut with inferior Robusta beans or mixed in with other lower grade coffees that can be purchased on world markets for pennies on the pound. This allows store brands to sell at a lower price and allows them to make a larger profit. That's why you can find cheaper coffee at your grocery store but it is also has a cheaper taste. Most consumers don't know the difference and have become accustomed to the lower grade coffees and blends since they have never tasted the difference. So if you see the word "blend" along with a renown gourmet coffee origin such as Kona, Costa Rica or Blue Mountain that is your hint to turn and run. Blends normally only have a smidgen of pure origin gourmet coffee beans and are blended with cheaper substitutes. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not have any requirements regarding what constitutes coffee origins or names so unfortunately the public needs to be aware. Flavored coffees are also made with low quality coffee beans that are spiked with flavor to remove the bitter and low grade coffee taste.

Gourmet coffee bean qualities vary like wine. Just like the difference between wine grown in Napa and Sonoma Valley, gourmet coffee beans vary by the different regions. Even within Costa Rica the coffee flavor varies great due to the different elevations and soil. You will also note a large difference between coffee grown in Maui and Kona. The Maui coffee does not compare to the Kona coffee quality. We travel the world in search of not only the best growing areas but dig even deeper to identify the best regions, valleys and then the best coffee farms within those regions that produce the best of the best gourmet coffee beans.

We purchase our gourmet coffee beans direct from the coffee farms to ensure that we are only purchasing the best coffee direct from the source. We by-pass distributors, wholesalers and coffee cartels and personally hand-pick the coffee growers. We personally select our farms based on the the quality of the gourmet coffee beans. Then we visit the coffee farms and review their methods of production to ensure that it meets our stringent standards. We review the farms for methods that do not harm the environment, the living conditions of the coffee workers and the consistency of the coffee beans.
