No, they're not growing coffee in Nevada. Sierra Nevada is actually located in the Department of Magdelena, Colombia. A "Department" is similar to a state (group of municipalities) and is located at the Northern tip of Colombia
Organically grown in full shade from trees of the typica variety at elevations of 3,300 to 4,300 feet in the mountainous Sierra Nevada region. The farmers of Sierra Nevada also receive benefits of the Fair Trade organization.
This is a smooth medium bodied coffee with distinct cocoa-chocolaty flavors, a fragrant aroma, and a mild acidity.
Medium roast is recommended, although it holds up nicely either light or dark roasted. A good choice for an espresso blend component.
