Artisans Philippine Barako Gold Coffee, 100% Liberica, 1.1 Lbs

Flavor Name: Med Roast Barako Beans | Size: 17.6 ounces (1 polyethylene package)

If you're searching for something distinct and exceptional in your coffee experience, akin to a craft beer compared to an industry lager, then Liberica beans are what you want. This coffee variety, long overlooked by industry growers due to the increased time and labor required for its production, offers a taste profile that surpasses both Arabica and Robusta beans.

Preserved by family farmers in the Philippines for local traditions, Liberica coffee evokes the essence of the farm and the forest, the charm of handcraft, and the richness of heritage. It is our mission to help save this heirloom coffee variety from extinction, and to enrich our coffee culture with greater diversity and vibrancy.

These 100 percent Liberica variety coffee beans are grown with dedication by small-scale farmers in the tropical lowland forest areas of the Philippines. This coffee is a rare and unique pleasure for coffee enthusiasts and anyone weary of the monotony of Arabica beans in coffee culture.

Once nearly extinct, this heirloom coffee variety now accounts for less than 3 percent of global coffee consumption. However, its distinct profile is less bitter than Arabica and Robusta, yet far bolder and more complex in taste. Liberica is an excellent espresso variety due to its superior sweetness.
