I’m brand spankin new to drinking coffee but after taking a trip to Hawaii and doing a coffee tour I was sold! We got a bag of peaberry coffee grown at the farm we bought the bag from in Hawaii and have ground the beans and used a French press to make our morning coffee! Yum! Well…we already went through that bag so yesterday I went out to find a new kind to try. We live in Alaska so….No one’s growing coffee up here of course, but I noticed that some bags say “proudly roasted in Alaska” but don’t say where the beans came from. And some bags will say “grown at ___ altitude, fair trade, ect..” but still don’t say where they come from. A few bags will say exactly what country and region. I’m not really sure it matters for anything practical but I am very curious about it! Is it just a bunch of beans from all over mixed together?
