Coffee of the Cross - Coffee with Purpose
A sacred offering from the heart of Nicaragua. Coffee of the Cross is more than a roast: it is the coffee that carries Guadalupe Roastery’s consecration to Our Lady of Guadalupe. For more than a decade we prepared for it; now every bag is a small act of mission.
The coffee itself is Guadalupe Roastery’s signature coffee: a washed lot from the highlands of Nicaragua, cupped at 84 points and built to the same profile year-round, so every bag tastes the way you remember it. Choose your roast: light for brightness, medium for balance, dark for depth.

Why it matters
100% of the revenue from this coffee goes directly back into the farm and the apostolic work around the Mountain of Peace Shrine: dignified labor, economic sustainability and a Catholic economic model that is faithful, just and full of hope.
