Sourcing Details:
Here is one of those rare opportunities where all that is good about coffee intersect.  Simply a trifecta of: organic farm management practices; traceable to producers in the Marcala region, a protected designation of origin (DENOMINACION DE ORIGEN CAFE DE MARCALA); and a meticulous post-harvest standard of hand sorting cherry, cherry floating to remove less dense and damaged beans, proper fermentation, and long drying times.

Cooperative Activities:
It starts with a concept called Finca Humana (the Human Farm) at Asociación de Productores Orgánicos Café Organico Marcala, S.A. (APROCOMSA), where the wellbeing of humans is the core objective and educating more than 1,500 producer-members to successfully live in harmony with nature is everywhere.  At La Fortaleza, the APROCOMSA biodynamic demonstration farm, the focus of transferring knowledge takes place through week-long seminars called Pata de Chucho (pawprints left by a stray dog), which aptly reveals APROCOMSA’s dogged exploration for human productivity in harmony with nature.  The trailblazing ideas for using organic matter to productively cultivate high quality coffee is only a sliver of what APRCOMSA teaches about the power of nature through the Finca Humana philosophy.  APROCOMSA dedicates funding from the proceeds of coffee sales to run a cutting edge International school dedicated to filling children’s minds with possibility, and training them to be the future leaders of Finca Humana.
