DESCRIPTION
Clean and sweet, easy to drink, with praline, toffee and lemon flavors coupled with a soft citric acidity. These Bourbon, Caturra and Typica varieties come from the El Castaño, Chiapas region of Mexico at an elevation of 900–1800 meters. Fully washed, these beans are organic, fair trade and kosher. Manufactured in Brooklyn Center, MN and sourced from a women-run Co-op in El Trinufo Reserve in Mexico. Their commitment to sustainable agro-forestry is proved by their maintenance of bio-corridors through their farms and the multi-species shade canopy over their coffee trees to create a true buffer zone for the bordering El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve-- home of Mesoamerica’s largest contiguous Cloud Forest. The 51 women coffee farmers of the Triunfo Verde Co-op who bring you this cup have come together to address some of the issues that affect women farmers in Mexico. With their work and coordination, they strive to address gender-based domestic violence, legal obstacles to obtaining land ownership, limited opportunities to diversify the family income, fewer educational opportunities, and economic dependence on men.
Bulk food will be packed in compostable paper bags.
