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.

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN

Guatamala

Shade grown on fertile volcanic slopes, it’s safe to say Guatemalan coffee is a real crowd pleaser when it comes to quality. Guatemala has a rich history of growing crops throughout Mayan culture, which is still present in many coffee growing communities today.

26 Members of the Tinamit Co-op

During our trip to Guatemala back in February, we were honoured to be at the mill when members of this co-operative in Lake Atitlan delivered their coffee there for the first time. The co-op is made up of producers from an indigenous Mayan community where they also run their own roastery and coffee shop for the locals.

Our approach to sourcing coffee is rooted in building relationships and working on long term time scales. In reality this means supporting the producers we buy from in good and bad years & buying multiple lots from each year's harvest, showcasing both the natural and washed lots from the Tinamit co-op brings us immense joy.
Social Relationships

Family Run Farm

The average age of a coffee producer globally is over 60 years old. There is little incentive for young people to learn the trade, as the returns are usually low in comparison to what they could earn in urban areas. By keeping the business in the family, the interest and passion for growing coffee is kept alive and can even thrive from the influence of younger farmers who are keeping up to date with innovation in technology and growing practices.
