This shade-grown organic Arabica coffee is a pleasingly nutty coffee perfect for any time of day. The caffeine was gently extracted before roasting using the safe CO2 extraction method. Aromas of nougat, waffle, and cocoa are accompanied by a subtle hint of apple. The medium roast enhances this balanced interplay of sweetness, roasted flavors, and acidity.
The Cafeticultores Orgánicos de Oaxaca (Coroax) cooperative was founded in 2012 and consists of 2,000 family-run farms, primarily owned by indigenous people from the Oaxaca region. In December 2022, we had the opportunity to visit Coroax and were impressed by the natural beauty of the Sierra surrounding Oaxaca City and the warmth of its members. You can read more about our trip in our post on the coffee blog.
On average, a family owns around 3 hectares of cultivated land in the high-altitude mountain regions of the state. Joining the cooperative enables these small farmers to improve the quality of their green coffee and market it more effectively.
All coffee farms in the cooperative adhere to strict organic farming guidelines. This producer is particularly distinguished by its commitment to preserving the biodiversity of the local flora and fauna, as well as ensuring fair compensation for small-scale farmers. We are especially pleased to present this low-acid Arabica from Coroax.
We are pleased to present this versatile decaffeinated coffee. This organic decaf is suitable as an espresso, cappuccino, or nutty-sweet filter coffee.
