Fara Coffee whole‑bean coffee — Signature Roast 2.2 lb (Medium‑Dark), Single‑Origin, Rainforest Alliance

Fara Coffee Signature Roast is a medium–dark whole-bean coffee made from 100% specialty-grade Arabica grown on Fara’s Matagalpa, Nicaragua farms and roasted in Texas for a balanced, rich cup.

Harvested on family-run farms in the highlands of Matagalpa and certified by Rainforest Alliance, this 2.2 lb bag of whole beans delivers a thoughtful blend of sweetness, chocolate notes, and subtle acidity. The beans are sustainably traded and roasted in Texas to a medium/dark profile that suits filter, pour-over, and espresso-style brewing. Ideal for home brewing enthusiasts who want single-origin traceability without sacrificing roast depth.

What flavor profile can I expect from the Signature Roast?

The medium/dark roast balances the natural fruit and floral character of Nicaraguan Arabica with deeper caramel and cocoa tones from the roast. You’ll notice a smooth body with low-to-moderate acidity and lingering chocolate or nutty finish.

• Notes: cocoa, caramel, light stone-fruit sweetness
• Body: medium to full
• Acidity: gentle, well-rounded
• Finish: warm, slightly sweet

How should I brew these whole beans to get the best cup?

Grind size and method change the emphasis of the roast: use a finer grind for espresso or a medium grind for automatic drip; a coarser grind is best for French press. Fresh grinding just before brewing preserves aroma and oils for maximum flavor intensity.

• Espresso: fine grind, 18–20 g dose for a double shot
• Pour-over: medium-fine grind, bloom 30–45 seconds
• French press: coarse grind, steep 4 minutes
• Use filtered water at 195–205°F for optimal extraction

What makes Fara Coffee’s beans sustainable and traceable?

Fara Coffee manages its own farms in Matagalpa, giving direct oversight of cultivation and harvesting practices. The beans are Rainforest Alliance Certified and sustainably traded, which supports better environmental stewardship and fairer incomes for producers.

• Grown on Fara’s family farms in Matagalpa, Nicaragua
• Rainforest Alliance Certified farming methods
• Sustainably traded and responsibly harvested
• Roasted locally in Texas for transparency and freshness

How should I store the 2.2 lb whole-bean bag to keep it fresh?

Keep the beans in a cool, dark place in an airtight container once opened to slow oxidation and preserve aroma. Because this is a larger-sized bag, consider dividing the beans into smaller sealed portions for weekly use.

• Store in a sealed, opaque container away from heat and light
• Avoid the refrigerator; use within 2–4 weeks of opening for best flavor
• Freeze only for long-term storage in small, airtight packs

Who is this for? Fara Coffee Signature Roast suits home baristas and coffee lovers who want specialty-grade, single-origin beans with sustainable credentials and a roast that works across brewing methods. If you value traceability, a balanced medium/dark flavor, and a larger 2.2 lb supply for frequent brewing, this whole-bean option is tailored for your kitchen or small office.
