Choosing organic, shade-grown coffee is a natural extension of who we are. Ironman Organic Coffee uses only the finest 100% USDA certified organic beans to ensure that the coffee we roast and the product that our customers will enjoy supports our growers and mother earth.
We’ve chosen what we believe are the highest quality and most flavorful coffee beans in the world - 100% certified organic Kona and single-origin Guatemalan. Single origin means consistency, which is the first step in producing a superior, “non-blended” coffee - harvested from the same farms each and every time. The high-altitudes and volcanic soil in Guatemala and the perfect growing climates in Kona make for some of the best coffee growing conditions in the world.
KONA PROFILE: Harvested from the award-winning A'ama Organic Farms, Ironman Organic Kona delivers a medium-body, slightly acidic coffee that is roasted at 461 degrees to give it a medium/dark finish without compromising the taste of the bean. Ironman Organic Kona Coffee is not only grown and harvested in Kona, but also roasted and packaged by local companies in Kona.
GUATEMALAN PROFILE: Our single-origin organic Guatemalan comes from the El Quiche region located high in the mountains of tropical Ixcan. We source our beans from a collaborative farm of 124 native Guatemalan families who provide us with a superbly consistent coffee. We roast our Guatemalan at 471 degrees which gives it its signature "dark roast". The result is a mildly acidic, very aromatic coffee with an excellent body and a smooth finish.
PERUVIAN PROFILE: Our organic
Peruvian coffee come from the Ccochapampa co-op (150 small family farms), which
is in the Cuzco region (south-central Peru). The coffee growing region is
between 1600 and 2000 meters. Although the beans are roasted at the same
temperature (471 degrees) as our Guatemalan to give it our signature "dark
roast", it is noticeably less acidic with hints of chocolate and earthy/nutty
tones. The Peruvian beans have proved themselves to be ideal for a dark roast.
