San Juan de la Unión is a small community nestled in the Sierra de Flores Magón, Oaxaca. This is where the lot that bears its name originates— the result of the collective work of several Mazatec coffee-growing families who, for the first time, ventured into experimenting with anaerobic fermentations in washed coffees.

BUYING STANDARDS

It’s really important for us to work with trusted partners in our supply chain who can provide us with honesty and traceability. We have created a set of guidelines to help us source coffee in a way we feel aligns with our values and beliefs. There are three core categories that we think outline the most important factors to consider when purchasing coffee: economic transparency, social relationship, and environmental efforts.

CARBON IMPACT

Our Roaster:
We’ve recently switched to a new electric Typhoon roaster which allows us to significantly reduce our carbon footprint. We selected it for its capacity, efficiency, and to maintain the same high-quality roasting. This transition also marks a step toward our long-term goal of becoming carbon neutral, with a commitment to using 100% renewable electricity.

Our Packaging:
Our 250g bags are paper based and can be recycled with kerbside recycling or composted in your garden. We recommend storing your coffee in an airtight container like this one. Our 1kg bags are 70% wastemade (LDPE4) and recyclable with soft plastic at the supermarket. Please don't put them in your curbside recycling. The planet thanks you!

Environmental Impact

Regenerative Farming

Our impact work in coffee producing regions is directly linked with the communities we purchase coffee from. We want to see those communities prosper in all areas of their life, not just coffee production, and for the benefit of all within the community.

Mazatec producers cultivate their coffee in mountain or rusticano systems—models characterized by low environmental impact and high ecological conservation, where the coffee plants coexist harmoniously with the surrounding forest ecosystem.

San Juan

San Juan de la Unión is one of the most marginalized localities in what is also known as the Mazatec Sierra. Coffee plots are often located in the lower areas of the communities, making access to them particularly dicult, as the paths are narrow and hard to traverse. The area’s cold climate frequently causes coffee to retain moisture, making the drying process slower and more challenging.
