Latte cup and saucer made of white porcelain with blue lettering.

Max. capacity 280ml

Origin: Spices from the Himalayas, black tea from Assam, India

Preparation recommendation

Boil 500ml water with 10g of masala chai and simmer for 5 minutes. Add 250ml of milk of your choice, bring back to a boil, and simmer for another 3 minutes. Add sugar to taste.

On the palate, you'll find a delicious sweetness of nuts, nougat, and marzipan, paired with a subtle fruitiness reminiscent of ripe apples. The medium roast gives this coffee a pleasant finish of milk chocolate and waffle. This makes it suitable both for a balanced, sweet espresso and as a harmonious base for milk-based coffee drinks.

Unión Majomut, a non-profit organization, unites approximately 1,000 families from 35 indigenous communities of the Tsotzil and Tseltal ethnic groups in the highlands of Chiapas, at altitudes of 900–1600 meters. Organic coffee cultivation takes place on small, family-run farms in the shade among various other crops. The organic fertilizers, diverse flora and fauna, and nutrient-rich soils ensure exceptionally healthy coffee plant growth.

The cooperative was founded in 1981 by small-scale coffee producers with the aim of improving the living conditions of its members through the production, processing, and marketing of organic coffee and other organic products. In addition to food security, environmental protection and the democratic participation of all members are cornerstones of this cooperative.

The holistic improvement of living conditions includes programs for the renovation and construction of housing, improved food self-sufficiency, and the promotion of the economic participation of female members. All programs are shaped by the customs and traditions of the indigenous communities.

Through direct trade with Majomut, the producers achieve a far higher income than when selling to intermediaries and, thanks to the long-term, stable relationship with Süssmund, are independent of the volatile fluctuations of the commodity markets.

Flavor profile:

Süssmund's first Arabica blend is a low-acid dark roast, very chocolatey and full-bodied. It was inspired by strong women (mujeres fuertes) in coffee cultivation. In our search for the perfect green coffee beans, we found what we were looking for at two cooperatives in Colombia (El Bombo) and Peru (La Prosperidad de Chirinos).

Both cooperatives specifically promote the economic participation and health of women in coffee farming. Measures include providing knowledge to optimize agricultural techniques and the subsequent processing of coffee cherries on the farm. This allows members to improve the quality and yield of their harvest and generate a higher income. The Prosperidad de Chirinos cooperative also pays female producers in its "Cosecha de Mujer" program an additional premium for every sack of coffee.

The producers' farms are designed as mixed-crop systems. Crops planted among the coffee bushes provide shade, healthy soil, and habitat for birds and insects. These crops and their organic fertilizers thus enable rich biodiversity.

The ripe coffee cherries are hand-picked and then processed directly on the farms. First, the coffee beans are separated from the pulp using small, hand-operated pulpers. Next, the beans are fermented in tanks for 12-36 hours and then washed in water basins. After this wet processing (washed), the coffee beans are dried on raised beds before the dried parchment is transported to the dry mill. There, the beans are separated from the parchment, sorted by quality, and prepared for export.

We are delighted to present this deliciously chocolatey espresso. It tastes particularly good as a classic espresso, but also harmonizes very well with milk.

Flavor profile:

Due to its partial oxidation, oolong tea's flavor lies somewhere between green and black tea. Oolong tea's flavor is particularly varied due to the different stages of oxidation.

The Baozhong is slightly less oxidized than other teas, as it hasn't been roasted or rolled. It's characterized by its light, fresh fragrance, abundant floral notes, and a buttery aroma that wafts from the pot. Although the Baozhong appears rather light, it has a full body and a long, pleasant aftertaste. Overall, a very soothing tea that's a joy to drink!

Flavor profile : Delicate, fresh, floral and sweet.
