The beans for each of our coffees originate from one single farm or co-operative where they were grown, dried and washed. We do not mix them with beans of other origins – we do not do blends. Instead, we only buy coffees that convince by themselves, without having to hide their flavours by mixing with other coffees.

Our coffees are roasted lighter than traditionally or commercially roasted coffee. With a lighter roast, the unique flavours of a specific coffee are accentuated, which vary by region, variety and many other factors. If coffee is roasted too dark, it loses this specific aroma profile and mostly just tastes of roasting flavours.

We strive for transparency across the whole coffee supply chain. When purchasing green coffee, fair agreements, direct trade contracts and transparent price structures are crucial to us. Instead of relying on certifications, we count on relationships with real people. The prices we pay for green coffee are always higher than the minimum fair trade price.

It goes without saying that we have to spare the earth's resources and behave ecologically – both privately and in business. This begins with the cooperation with producers who make use of resources in a sustainable fashion and support biodiversity and ends with an efficient use of resources and optimizing recycling processes and packaging.
