Elevation

Todos Santos is a growing group of around 275 women. They are otherwise known as "Mujeres luchando por un mejor futuro" (women fighting for a better future). Ten years ago they formed the association and have been doing great things within their community ever since. Not only have they created a fund to help each other's projects, but they've worked together to diversify their agricultural industry, opening new lines of income. They've also worked hard to improve their knowledge and practice of growing coffee. We are grateful to be able to share the fruit of their labor with you!

Fresh off the grind the aromatics are toffee sweet. The cup is clean and we are tasting everything from peach to crisp apple, all wrapped up an a caramel sweetness. If you like sweet balanced coffees from Central America, it's easy to feel good about, and hard to go wrong with this special lot.

Transparency

1Spot purchase

“Spot” is coffee in an importer’s inventory they have not sold. When we need to fill gaps in our contractual and relationship purchases, we buy spot. Of course, we are always open to spot becoming relationship purchases, and sometimes they do.

 2Contract purchase

Most of our purchases are contractual, meaning we have made a commitment to purchase the coffee before it arrives in the US. In general contracts are meant to build security for the producer and importer, and to help us make sure we have the coffee we need to share with you.

 3Repeat purchase

We are proud of the fact that many of the coffees we purchase are repeat purchases, and have been for years. Most producers, especially from Central and South America, can count on us purchasing their coffee year after year.

 4Visits

We’ve met, and have an ongoing relationship with the producer. At a minimum, they have visited us at Sweet Bloom, or we have visited them on the farm. As the relationship deepens, we build our understanding of:

1) challenges faced from one year to the next
2) sustainability practices on the farm
3) how the farmer is caring for their staff
4) ways in which we can support projects the farmers have implemented on the farm and in the community
