Why 97% of Coffee Contains Pesticides — and How Our Puerto Rican Coffee Stands Apart

Coffee is one of the most beloved beverages in the world, but did you know that 97% of coffee is heavily sprayed with pesticides and herbicides during cultivation? These chemicals not only impact the environment but can also affect the quality and safety of the coffee you drink. At Hacienda Tierra Viva, we’re changing the game with pesticide-free, regenerative Puerto Rican coffee.

The Problem with Conventional Coffee

Most commercial coffee farms use a variety of chemical sprays to protect crops from pests, mold, and disease. While this may increase yields, it comes at a cost: soil degradation, water contamination, and reduced biodiversity. Additionally, conventional coffee can carry chemical residues, which concerns health-conscious coffee lovers.

How Hacienda Tierra Viva Stands Apart

Our Puerto Rican coffee is grown without pesticides or herbicides, using regenerative farming practices that restore soil health and protect the ecosystem. By focusing on sustainable agriculture, we produce beans that are not only cleaner but also naturally richer in flavor. The combination of fertile volcanic soil, tropical rainfall, and ideal elevation ensures our coffee stands out in both quality and taste.

Award-Winning Recognition

It’s no surprise that our careful cultivation has earned accolades: Hacienda Tierra Viva was recently rated among the best by Coffee Review, making it one of the most highly rated Puerto Rican coffees in the world. Our dedication to pesticide-free, regenerative farming contributes directly to the award-winning quality of our beans.

Why Clean Coffee Matters

Choosing pesticide-free Puerto Rican coffee supports your health, the environment, and sustainable farming communities. At Hacienda Tierra Viva, we believe coffee should be enjoyed responsibly — and that the future of coffee depends on clean, regenerative practices.
