About this Coffee

THE FARMER

Akmel Nuri runs the farm from where we have bought coffee since 2014. Next to his raised beds where the coffee cherries are drying, he has a wild and natural growing coffee forest. The coffee trees grow under shade of taller trees prolonging the ripening of the cherries, which contributes to the intense flavour we experience in this coffee.

DIRECT TRADE

We work by the values of transparent trade. This helps create a healthy relationship with the farmer and financial sustainability for them.

We pay a quality bonus to Akmel Nuri that is 103% above market price ($3.80/lb FOB). The quality bonus allows the farmer to continue to produce higher quality coffee.
