Bird Friendly Ethiopia 12oz. Bag Bean
A certified Bird Friendly® coffee from Africa that is light roasted and produces a light bodied cup with tasting notes of blackberry, chocolate and lavender.
• 12oz Bag
• Whole Bean Coffee
Due to an ongoing manufacturing issue with our retail can supplier that has affected their ability to provide cans in a timely manner, we are actively transitioning our 12oz can product to a 12oz bag.
As we work through this change and ensure our new packaging aligns with our commitment to sustainability, you may receive your coffee in different bag styles over the next few months. Rest assured, it’s the same great Chesapeake Coffee you know and love inside.
We truly appreciate your patience and continued support during this transition.

Featured Bird:
Silvery-Cheeked Hornbill • Bycanistes brevis
A native to Eastern Africa, the Silvery-Cheeked Hornbill is the featured bird on Asikana's Buri Coffee Farm. These birds are threatened by deforestation mostly due to their unique nesting strategy; the female seals herself into a tree cavity with her brood, leaving only a small opening for the male to deliver food to both the female and chicks until they are ready to fledge.
