Manatee Coffee calls consumer attention to a flavored coffee variety called Chocolate Raspberry. This medium roast blend boasts low acid content and is available either ground or whole bean in twelve-ounce or two-pound bags.
Manatee Coffee prides itself on its sourcing practices and its approach to flavor integration. For the Chocolate Raspberry blend and other options, the company relies on 100% Arabica coffee beans for rich and complex profiles. During the roasting process, the brand strategically controls the temperature "to ensure the roast has the most flavorful potential with the lowest amount of acid."
The family-owned and US-operated Manatee Coffee has made a name for itself as a conservation-focused brand that has been supporting manatee protection since 2010. The company reports that over 100,000 people start their day with its products.
