For many different reasons, beginning in 2011, One Village Coffee has decided to move from 16oz (1lb) to 12oz bags of coffee for distribution. The freshness of our coffee has been and always will be a top priority here at OVC. The less coffee you have sitting in each opened bag at home, the more coffee you can enjoy at it’s peak. As coffee can begin to loose some of its freshness after approximately two weeks post-roast if it is not stored properly, whatever we can do to minimize this time period improves freshness and thus overall quality.

Also, 12oz bags afford everyone an opportunity to try more of our coffee with less risk. Rather than purchasing a pound of a coffee that may or may not suit your individual palette, you will now have the ability to purchase a smaller 12oz bag that requires less of a commitment on your part but still allows you to form a well-rounded opinion over multiple brewings. Overall, we feel that moving to 12oz bags will provide a more positive coffee experience for everyone involved. Isn’t that what community’s all about after all?
