UNION Organic Natural Spirit Wholebean

There are currently 3 producers that provide the coffees that make up our Natural Spirit Blend.

Honduras is the biggest coffee producer in Central America and one of the top ten producers worldwide. In the western part of Honduras we found this gem – COCAFELOL, or formally ‘’Cooperativa Cafetalera Ecológica "La Labor Ocotepeque" Ltda (COCAFELOL)’’. It was founded in 1995 by a group of 24 members in order to face the coffee crisis at that time by focusing on producing high-quality coffee.

Chirinos is a co-operative of smallholder coffee farmers in Amazonas, North Peru. In 1968, 36 smallholder farmers joined together to form this co-operative and today they boast over 807 members, of which 30% are women, from several communities in Cajamarca region. The average coffee producer farms an area less than 5 hectares, so being part of a co-operative enables them to sell their coffee.

The Fero co-operative who farm in Wonsho, Ethiopia are extremely organised, with a solid member base and understands the importance of traceability, transparency and quality. They are certified Fairtrade and organic, using organic compost and no agrochemicals at all on the coffee.
