Key Points

• Single-origin coffee — sourced from high-altitude estates in Guatemala (June–December roasting) and Colombia (December–June roasting)
• Hand-picked beans — only ripe berries selected by skilled harvesters
• Medium roast — tasting notes of cinnamon, plum, orange, with a cocoa-hazelnut finish
• Rainforest Alliance Certified beans from estate farms
• Sustainable processing — washed and mechanically dried via established techniques
• Pre-ground to a medium grind — suited to drip, syphon, and pour-over brewing methods

What It Is

This is the Original Bulletproof Coffee in pre-ground format. It is just coffee — Arabica beans, sourced from single-origin estates, hand-picked, sustainably processed, and roasted to a medium roast.

No added vitamins, no added mushroom extracts, no added Coffeeberry® or other ingredients. The bag contains coffee.

If you prefer to grind your own beans, the same coffee is also available as whole beans. For Nespresso users, it is also available as Nespresso-compatible pods.

Sourcing

Where the beans come from: Bulletproof sources beans from estate farms in Guatemala and Colombia on a six-month rotation — beans roasted between June and December come from a Guatemalan estate; beans roasted between December and June come from a Colombian estate. This pattern applies across all Bulletproof coffee roasts.

How the beans are picked: Hand-picked by experienced coffee harvesters who select only perfectly ripe berries. This contrasts with mass-harvest approaches that may include unripe or damaged beans.

How the beans are processed: Beans are sustainably washed and mechanically dried before roasting.

Brewing Notes

The medium grind in this product is set up for:

• Drip coffee makers — ideal grind
• Syphon brewing — ideal grind
• Pour over — works well
• Moka pots — works well

For Aeropress, French press, cold brew, or Turkish coffee, the medium grind isn’t ideal — you’ll need to increase the brew time (typically 3+ minutes) to compensate. If you regularly use these methods, the whole-bean version may suit you better.

The Bulletproof Coffee Recipe

"Bulletproof Coffee" is a popular preparation method that combines brewed coffee with grass-fed butter (or ghee) and MCT oil. It originated as a high-fat breakfast option for people on ketogenic or low-carb dietary patterns who want to skip a traditional carbohydrate-based breakfast.

The fats give the drink a creamy texture and a higher caloric content than plain coffee. Treat it as a meal rather than a beverage if using it as a breakfast replacement.

Packaging Notes

Pre-ground coffee tends to lose freshness faster than whole beans because the increased surface area accelerates oxidation. To extend freshness, this product is packaged in a nitrogen-flushed bag with a one-way degassing valve — the nitrogen displaces oxygen at packaging, and the valve lets CO₂ from the beans escape without letting oxygen in. Bags stay fresh at room temperature for several weeks once received. For longer storage, unopened bags can be frozen (place tape over the degassing valve first to prevent moisture infiltration).
