This balanced filter coffee captivates with the delicious sweetness of hazelnut and nougat, paired with a subtle fruity note reminiscent of apple. The medium roast gives this filter coffee a pleasant cocoa finish. This versatile, charming coffee is a perfect companion for all day and never gets boring.

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

The cooperative was founded in 1981 by small-scale coffee producers with the goal 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 democratic participation of all members are cornerstones of this cooperative.

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

By trading directly with Majomut, producers earn a much higher income than by selling to intermediaries, and the long-term, stable relationship with Süssmund makes them independent of the volatile fluctuations of the commodity markets.
