Alto Grande Super Premium Coffee Beans (6 lbs)

Since the early 19th century, the Hacienda Alto Grande in Puerto Rico has been producing one of the world's finest coffees. This Super Premium coffee, known as "the very best," arrived in Puerto Rico in 1736 and by the end of the 19th century, the island had become the sixth-largest exporter of coffee globally.

Established in 1839 in the Buenos Aires and Santa Isabel sectors of Lares, Puerto Rico, Alto Grande has long been celebrated for its unique Arabica beans, grown in the most ideal soil and climate conditions, and processed to the most exacting standards. Experts enthusiastically describe Alto Grande as a "rare and exotic Puerto Rican coffee with a full body, chocolate undertones, and a sweet, pointed aroma."

As market leaders, the Alto Grande team recognizes their commitment extends beyond just harvesting a high-quality product. In 2014, they launched the "Sembrando el bien" ("sowing the good") project, focusing on four essential elements for conserving the coffee industry: preserving the land, connecting the community, leading progress, and promoting wellness.

Alto Grande's unparalleled quality is a result of the sophisticated coffee processing system employed at the well-preserved Hacienda, situated deep in the central mountain range of Puerto Rico. This combination of fertile soil, ideal climate, and the craftsmanship of local experts, alongside cutting-edge technology, makes Alto Grande one of only three Super Premium coffees in the world.

Renowned as "the coffee of Popes and Kings," Alto Grande has long been sought after by the Royal Courts of Europe and the Vatican in Rome for its extraordinary aroma and intensity. Now, coffee enthusiasts can experience this exceptional brew in various formats, including whole bean, ground, single-serve pods, and even a brewer machine paired with the Alto Grande variety.

Earning the Arabica Hard Bean Classification for being grown at altitudes between 4,000 and 4,500 feet above sea level, the Alto Grande Arabica beans mature at a slower pace, resulting in a harder, denser bean and an unsurpassed consistency and taste.

Whether enjoyed as whole bean, ground, or in single-serve pods, Alto Grande Super Premium Coffee delivers a truly remarkable coffee experience. Its unique combination of fertile soil, ideal climate, traditional craftsmanship, and cutting-edge technology make it a one-of-a-kind offering that elevates the senses and brings the "coffee of Popes and Kings" to your familia.
