Coffee from Southern Mexico: National Wildlife Blend K-Cups

Green Mountain National Wildlife Blend

Green Mountain National Wildlife Blend

Coffee from Mexico, like the National Wildlife Blend K-Cups, boasts unique spice notes, delicate flavors, and dense bodies. Fruity chocolate and ripe berries are key notes. Of all the Mexican coffees Oaxacan coffee gets the most praise: everyone loves this bean whether is light-roasted or espresso-roasted. The fruity flavors along with tones of almond and brandy appear when these beans are lightly roasted. At a darker roast, chocolate and even caramel begin to fill your palate.

Imagine: a bright red coffee berry is picked just as the fog lifts. In the distance spider monkeys howl as tropical birds sing. Coloful orchid and butterflies, as well as the footprints of jaguars are common sightings on this reserve. Taken from a farms in the southernmost regions in Mexico—La Trinidad in Oaxaca which was formed by indigenous Zapotec coffee farmers and El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve in Chiapas which is maintained by local families—National Wildlife Blend is a popular Mexican coffee. These coffee farms are strategically placed in cloud forests, where there is loads of life. For this reason, only sustainable farming techniques are used to create this coffee. Environmentally conscious methods that are completely pesticide-free are key to producing this biosphere-friendly coffee.

To preserve the vividly diverse region, farmers create high quality coffee that puts money back into their community as well as the environment around them. These Fair Trade farmers get market prices for their coffee, allowing them to create more schools for their children, get environmentally-friendly farming equipment, and office basics like computers, copy machines and furniture. Sumatran Reserve Blend develops the social area while maintaing the natural landscape.

Bright and fruity, Green Mountain Coffee National Wildlife Blend is a light roasted coffee that boasts a natural unadulterated mouthfeel. The body is light, but the unique spiced notes and fruity flavors make this coffee intriguing. National Wildlife Blend is a great coffee for light-roast lovers, but the brown sugar and chocolate notes that linger in the finish keep this coffee interesting for anyone!

Tully’s Kona Blend K cups

Kona coffee is rare. The Kona region, which boasts the perfect growing conditions for this tasty coffee, is a relatively small area. Since the weather and land vary all around the Hawaiian islands, the rest of the Hawaiian islands doesn’t provide the same kind of nurturing for coffee plants. So while Hawaiian coffee is delicious, Kona coffee is superb. Tully’s Kona Blend K-Cups delivers that rare and delicious taste with convenience at great price.

In the spring, the Kona coffee trees display the first signs of a spring bloom. Once the intensely fragrant Kona blooms burst into life, the Hawaiian hillsides are covered in white flowers, looking like they were dusted in snow. Owing to the hospitable Hawaiian environment, Kona coffee is one of the most prized single-origin coffees. The volcanic soil of the Hawaiian islands lends lots of rich minerals to coffee grown here, while the conducive climate—which boasts loads of sun, ample rain, and moderate temperatures—coaxes the well-rounded characteristics of the arabica coffee into maturity.

This March as these coffee crops begin turning into Kona snow, coffee drinkers around the world can already enjoy the delicious results with Kona blend coffees. Tully’s Coffee brings Keurig drinkers the great taste of Kona coffee with the best-selling Tully’s Kona Blend k cup. Boasting a bold body and low levels of acidity, Tully’s Kona coffee is a major crowd pleaser. Tully’s Kona Blend is celebrated for its full-bodied taste and smooth palate.

The coffee flavor, after a crisp opening, slowly emerges with full-bodied nut notes and a dash of spice. Fruity, pleasant, and smooth, Tully’s Kona coffee is an all-around winner.
