Bolita Beans

The bolita bean is a creamy-tan bean a little smaller than the pinto. It is high in protein, but a little sweeter with a creamier texture, and it is said to be easier on the digestive system.

This bean was one of the original varieties brought by the Spanish as they settled New Mexico. It is still grown by a few Spanish farms to this day, due to its dry bean, rich flavor and creamy texture. Ours come from a small family farm in southwestern Colorado. Better than the Pinto bean, this small bean cooks fast and is the tastiest part of several centuries of Four Corners area history.

Bolitas absorb whatever spice you add to them while cooking. Exceptional for BBQ beans, or cook with onion and salt for a simple breakfast dish full of fiber to start the day right!

Product packed in a facility that also handles nuts, peanuts, soy, sesame, and wheat. 1 lb and 5 lb sizes only.

Tasty Beans

I understand bolitas came from New Mexico and Colorado, and was used as a substitute for Pinto beans. I will say that I really enjoyed the taste. I'm fond of black beans, mayocoba beans, great northern beans. I'm not fond of kidney or lima beans, or any bean that has a firmer texture and skin.
So if you enjoy more tender skinned beans, then you should give these a try.

I like the cream texture of Bolita Beans my new favorite flavorful Beans!

bolita beans

These are very clean beans. I soaked them overnight-changed the water-put in garlic and bay leaves. These cooked quickly which let me know these are fresh. Delicious beans that taste clean with a flavorful broth, I eat mine with parmesan cheese. I will buy more.

Great Customer Care

The beans arrived quickly with timely notifications. I have not tried the beans yet but they appear fresh with a good color. Before the beans were sent, I received a phone call from a Country Life rep wanting to verify an address. She was pleasant and helpful; I'm definitely sold on this company and will be back. Thank you!
