We're so pleased to offer this "Natural" coffee from COSMA in Honduras. With natural coffees the cherries are washed and left to dry in the sun. Once the drying is complete... the green seed is removed from the fermented, dried cherry; taking on a natural fruity, cherry undertone.
Fifteen years ago, 62 Honduran coffee farmers joined together with a common goal to transform their farms from conventional to organic production and formed COMSA (Cafe Organico Marcala, S.A).
In 2001, with help from a foundation called Funder, COMSA earned their organic certification.
In 2006, COMSA applied for and was granted Fair Trade certification status. The Fair Trade price premium funds many social projects including teachers’ salaries and school supplies. The premium also finances the construction of kitchens in the schools providing meals for school children.
notes: a syrupy cup with notes of cherry, watermelon, strawberry and honey
