Fairtrade® Organic Honduras

Our Honduras coffee pays tribute to one of the most well-preserved Catholic Cathedrals in the country. While The St. Michael the Archangel Cathedral was built during Colonial Times, it is an important aspect of life for those in Honduras still today.

An important aspect of the actual coffee we are bringing to you is that it is SHG (Strictly High Grown) specifies that the coffee was grown at an altitude around 1350 meters. Coffee grown at a higher altitude and lower temperature produces a slower maturing fruit and a denser bean; which creates a more desirable specialty cup. These beans have been carefully tended to through European Preparation (EP), which means  that the raw beans are all hand sorted to remove any defective beans and foreign material.

We note flavors of caramel, spice and brown sugar. This is a Founder Favorite among our Single Origin offerings.

Farm Information:

In 2014, 25 small coffee producers in the Casitas District, in the town of Corquin, Copan, formed the COOP called CAFESCOR – Cafes Especiales Corquin, S. A. de C. V. Since that time, the COOP has grown to over 131 partners farming over 400 cultivated hectares. With a wet mill in the community of Las Casitas and a dry mill in the community of Jimilile, the COOP partners are committed to continue growing and gaining recognition for excellence in coffee production.

Statement of Sustainability:

• The majority of our shipping materials are curbside recyclable, and all of our Tea packaging is compostable. 

• We only ethically source our coffee from small-lot farmers. We offer several Fairtrade® Certified, and organically grown options.

• We believe in chemical-free products. All of our Decaffeinated coffees utilize the Swiss Water Process for decaffeination. 

• We think you deserve the best. All of our Flavored Coffees only use natural flavorings. We absolutely refuse to ever use artificial flavors in any of our products. We add just a touch of natural flavoring after the roasting process while our beans are still warm for a light taste of your favorite flavors!

• With every purchase, we fund the planting of 1 tree through the 'Trees for Education Program', formed by the collaborative efforts of UNASDG, Imani's Board and Embu officials. After year 1, the tree is included in the program that leverages the International Carbon Market through the UNASDG, and provides desperately needed funding for a school for orphans in Kenya.

• We are a member of the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA), which has the purpose to “foster global coffee communities to support activities to make coffee a more sustainable, equitable, and thriving activity for the whole value chain.”

• We are a member of World Coffee Research. This is a non-profit that unites the global coffee-industry towards a sustainable supply of quality coffee for generations to come. Not just because coffee tastes good, but to protect the livelihoods of thousands in many of the world’s poorest regions. It assists farmers with the tools, knowledge and plants necessary to adapt to the changing climate. It includes research on new varieties, techniques, and support to small, local farmers who are often the furthest from innovation.
