This coffee comes to us from the Yaxcoffee exporting group.  Before Yaxcoffee was formed, farmers relied on a national coffee organization to help with coffee production.  When that program was dissolved, it left farmers to find and create their own resources. As a few organizations popped up to fill that need, over time some combined to become a leaner and more transparent organization.  Thus Yaxcoffee was formed. It was founded in 2011 with the purpose of providing technical assistance to communities, promoting programs for organic coffee production, and obtaining financing for the collection and marketing of coffee from small producers.  The group's vision is to improve the quality of life for all the farmers that work with them, by assisting with production, processing, and bringing to market high quality Organic and Fair Trade coffee. With the stable pricing that these certifications offer, Yaxcoffee is able to create jobs and to promote and strengthen a culture of environmental awareness. 

When cupping this coffee, we found flavors of graham cracker, molasses, and orange bitters with a nice round body.  It's a sweet and mellow treat! 

This coffee is Fair Trade Certified and Certified Organic. 

All coffees are available in whole bean only.
