Why is Howling Monkey Coffee so special???

Howling Monkey coffee is organic and shade grown. Coffee from the BSR coop is grown in an area known as the Golden Triangle because of its rich soil. The GT is a critical area, it recharges aquifers and rivers, is known for some of Nicaragua’s richest agricultural land, and also serves as a biological channel for many tropical birds. The coffee is shaded by a large variety of shade and fruit trees. These trees provide habitat for fauna like howler monkeys. The coffee is grown at approximately 1,500 to 1,600 feet above sea level. The coffee is Bourbon and Caturra varieties. Given the large variety of shade trees and relative low elevation, it has a complex aroma, rich body, sweet flavor, and low acidity. The coffee is de-pulped, dried, and roasted by the farmers themselves. By purchasing Howling Monkey Coffee you are not only supporting the small farmers of BSR, you are also helping to preserve rainforest and habitat for animals and tropical birds. A portion of each sale will be used to support community projects in Nicaragua.
