One-of-a-kind coffee is the result of a
one-of-kind relationship. Born out of Antioquian pride coupled with a century's worth of
expertise in importing and roasting, has blossomed the partnership between 96,000 coffee
farmers and First Colony Coffee, the only vertically-integrated coffee company
in the United States.
It’s a relationship, a partnership and a friendship. That’s how we describe the union of the Federación Nacional
de Cafeteros de Colombia - Comité Departamental de Cafeteros de Antioquia and First Colony Coffee & Tea.
And since its inception in 1995, we have been enjoying the fruits of this venture--yielding not only incomparable
coffees but also contributing to health, educational, and environmental programs which are being put into place as
a result of this partnership. We have cultivated a new kind of coffee company, and we take pride in offering you
our finest selection of beans while knowing that we are simultaneously improving the quality of life for coffee
growers and their families. |

How do you make sure that a coffee is going to be great over ice? Plenty of taste tests, that's how! First Colony employees will be testing coffees all summer and bringing you the delicious results.
GHIRARDELLI CAFFÈ® CHOCOLATE CARAMEL A medley of our timeless caramel blend and a dusting of Ghirardelli cocoa. Perfect with dessert! |
Employee Rating: A
We love this coffee over ice! Here's how we made it:
1 - Use 8 cups of water to 2 ounces of coffee. (It needs to be strong so the ice doesn't water it down.)
2 - Once coffee is brewed, mix in 1 cup sugar. (This took some time to figure out - everyone kept adding sweetener to their cups! So we added more sugar and all agreed that it was better. The sugar helps bring out the caramel flavoring. We prefer real sugar over artificial sweeteners.)
3 - Fill cup completely with ice before pouring coffee in the cup.
4 - Add creamer to taste.
Enjoy! |
