A RECIPE TO ERADICATE POVERTY
A BEAUTIFUL STORY
For many years, the coffee-producing communities living and working on the Tacaná Volcano (Chiapas, Mexico) were at the mercy of intermediaries, commonly known in Mexico as coyotes.
Nowadays, these communities can live from their work, send their children to school, and have a fruitful life. Their coffee is 100% organic, has obtained a Rainforest Alliance certification, developed a blockchain platform, and has become a case study at Harvard University.
We visited the communities for the first time in 2015 and immediately fell in love with the people, the place, and the project.
Enjoying your favorite coffee at home or in the office is easier than ever. You can change, pause, or cancel your subscription at any time. Shipping costs and VAT are included in the prices.
