Bob-o-Link Brazil Coffee

April 13th, 2010 General

Now Available

Our new Brazilian coffee is a direct trade coffee offering from Jittery Joe’s through Bob-o-Link Coffee. Bob-o-Link is a result of a network of farmers located in one of the best regions for coffee in Brazil, which have in common the vision of producing the best coffees. The sustainable agriculture methods they use reduce the “heavy footprints” of humans on earth. Most of the FAF coffee farmers are formed by small properties, run by single or extended families, located at the top of the mountains, the perfect environment for the best coffees. The beans are picked selectively and dried in terraces next to their homes, under close watch and care of the farmers.

At Jittery Joe’s, we know the importance of direct trade. It’s is a great way to know where our quality coffee beans come from, how they are grown, and their impact on the environment. We get to be involved in the process, ensuring that the coffee you drink is the best it can be, in every way. Added bonus: we roast all the beans here at the Athens roaster so your coffee is always fresh, delicious, and locally maintained.
