Fara Coffee

We live in CA and discovered they have a web site so we mail order it. It’s still cheaper than the stuff in grocery stores and better. Only beef is please carry more types in the big bag

Fara Coffee is a wonderful product! It is locally roasted in Austin and both the farms in Nicaragua and the roasting company are owned and operated by the same family who oversee every step of the process from growth to roast. I love this coffee for the great quality and also for the strong connection to Nicaragua. Proceeds from their Fara Foundation go to the farmers and their family to help provide schools and clinics!
Not to mention the coffee comes in many different roasts, never artificially flavored, never tasting burned, and low in acidity. You can find the yellow bags at HEB, Sprouts, Whole Foods, Randal’s, and Fresh Plus, or it can be ordered online via
. Drink up coffee lovers!

Fara Coffee fits right into the niche market of coffee in a city such as Austin, but with the market so saturated with «bestavores» rather than «locavores», I put high priority on high quality beans purchased at a higher price. This is sad to say, seeing as we have both Cuvee, Third Coast, and Fara sold widely – at many local groceries.
I do appreciate this micro-​roaster (can we really call it «micro» though, for how widely spread it is?), specifically for its Nicaraguan partnership, and their ability to crank out so many different provides variety for clientele seeking simplicity in flavor and for brewing purposes.
I recently gave the coconut-​flavored selection a spin, and I very much enjoyed the aromatic nuance to this varietal, though the roasting may have lent a slight burnt note into the finished product.
Fara welcomes all who necessitate a solid, local outlet when they look to make their next caffeine purchase.

i’m a self-​proclaimed caffeine addict — and fara coffee gets my vote. [& it’s local aka… double-​caffeinated win]

I came to know about Fara Coffee from a roadshow at my nearby Costco.
Now, before we go any further with this, know that Fara Coffee is _​NOT_​stocked by your Costco; it is one of those «roadshow only» items. So save the hate mail when you make a special trip to Costco and find it isn’t there.
Fara sells six varieties of whole bean coffee:
— Breakfast Blend
— Special Blend
— Signature Roast
— French Roast
— Espresso Roast
— Decaf
What makes Fara Coffee special? Well, for one, it’s «Buy Local». The family owns all aspects of this Austin-​based coffee biz, from planting to packaging. They have four estates in Nicaragua where the coffee is grown. And, it’s a multi-​generational business; five generations strong.
Fara’s coffee is Specialty Grade, nothing less. It’s rainforest shade grown. it’s strictly high grown (above 3,000 feet elevation). And it’s also 100% Arabica coffee.
At the risk of sounding like Henny Youngman, «That’s what the bag said».
So what possessed me to buy nine pounds of coffee based on one taste? Well, for one thing, a French Roast that doesn’t pay you back for hours on end. Low acid is where it’s at, my friends. I don’t see a BP-​sized oil slick forming in the top of my cup after it’s brewed, either. Last, but not least, the flavor and aroma is pretty darned awesome.
But, don’t take my word for it. Fara has a coffee shop and a sports bar in ABIA, so next time you’re there, try some. And, if you can’t wait that long, Fara is available by the pound at HEB, Sprouts, Newflower, Specs, Walgreens, and many other places around town.
It also makes the perfect Christmas gift!
