Wholesale Praying Monk - Whole Bean - Organic

Light yet packing a berry punch, this roast is sure to please those looking for the fruity side of coffee. We blended our single origin Ethiopia with an island coffee to bring you an exceptionally sweet roast. Different berries come together making a perfect balance, accompanied by honey and dried apricot. We’re bursting with excitement at all this cup has to offer. The name “Praying Monk” comes from the natural rock formation, pictured above, on Camelback Mountain in Paradise Valley, Arizona. We also chose the name “Praying Monk” for this blend because legend has it that the first cup of brewed coffee was concocted by a monk. In ancient Abyssinia – the part of the world now known as Ethiopia – this monk heard about the coffee cherry’s enlivening properties. He picked some coffee cherries, created a drink from them, and served this drink to the monks in his abbey to help them stay alert during the long prayer sessions. We have to admire the monks who first discovered coffee in Ethiopia for what is still, to this date, regarded as some of the best coffee in the world. Praying Monk coffee is Hunter Bay’s tribute to this longstanding tradition.
