What’s in your cup?
In our cup you’ll find coffee that not only wakes up your senses with its delicious flavor but that also leaves you feeling great—body and mind.
And that’s just what we think of when selecting our coffee at Windy Prairie.
It is our pride and care to pursue and select premium coffee to fill our cup and yours.
A few considerations we keep in mind when doing so:
First, we look for organic coffee, as it tends to be a healthier choice with its promise of keeping the beans free of harmful chemicals, which would otherwise leave our bodies feeling the negative effects.
When available we choose Fair Trade beans: this guarantees that the farmers who labor over every bean—it takes approximately 2,000 coffee cherries to make a single pound of the coffee you enjoy at home!—receive a just income for all their work, to support their families and keep their businesses going.
Furthermore, our beans primarily come from higher elevations. An odd thing to look for, you say? Well, this characteristic can actually make a huge difference in quality and flavor. It’s believed that beans grown at high altitudes are generally denser and larger, while also containing the most flavorful profile. You truly get a taste of Guatemala, Honduras, Ethiopia, Costa Rica, New Guinea . . . in this cup of coffee!
Also, beans sourced from small farms are chosen as much as possible. This leaves us feeling great, knowing that we are supporting primarily family-owned and -ran businesses who rely upon the beans we roast for income.
Lastly, high-quality grading: this rating system ensures that the beans we buy are of uniform size and have few to no defects, allowing an even roast to be achieved. It also assures that the beans have distinct attributes in their overall flavor. No bland beans here!
Premium coffee? Yes; it’s our pride and joy.
Windy Prairie’s finest selections are enjoyed as single-origin—which country do you want to taste?—and none of our beans contain artificial flavors. You get to enjoy the full-flavor of our freshly roasted coffee! Likewise, we frequently rotate stock so that your cup and ours are as fresh as possible.
So, what’ll be in your cup tomorrow?
