Guatemala, El Carrizal

£14.25
Carlos Durán Matias inherited El Carrizal farm together with his siblings, but manages it individually. Growing from 14 to 31 hectares, the oldest farm in the area cultivates quality varieties such as Typica, Bourbon, & Caturra. The diversity of production is extensive, encompassing not only coffee but also fruit & timber trees. This lot was washed at the farm’s own mill, which Carlos believes, although small, meets all the requirements for quality processing & sorting perfectly.

Shipping

Delivery on standard item is 2-3 days. Subscriptions and large items may require longer delivery times. We will contact you with a delivery estimate if your order can not be delivered within our standard timeframe.

Environmental Impact

All our packaging should be recycled in domestic curbside recycling or at your local recycling centre.

We are almost a waste free business & constantly track and measure our waste and impact on the environment.

Packaging

We have specifically sourced our packing so it can be recycled.

Our coffee bags are made from LDPE - 4, which can be taken anywhere that recycles plastic bags (supermarkets & council sites). Everything else we use can be put in domestic curbside recycling.

Delivery

We roast once a week in batches to reduce our carbon footprint. So your coffee might not arrive the next day.

Direct Trade

Whilst Fairtrade (TM) is a great, we believe directly buying from producers means all the money goes to straight to them.
