Our first coffee sourced with Primavera, we're excited to support female producers in Huehuetenango. Gender equity is a longstanding challenge for the coffee industry, but research has shown that when women are empowered to make decisions, including financial decisions about their coffee farms, families and community are more successful and their needs are better met.
We've sourced this coffee to be enjoyed as a delicious entry level, sessionable filter, best enjoyed black. At the roastery we're currently enjoying it most brewed as a V60-you can check out our brew guides

FROM OUR IMPORTERS - PRIMAVERA
Our newest blend, Primavera Sisterhood, is a twist on our popular regional blend from Huehuetenango. Gender equity is a longstanding challenge for the coffee industry; women coffee growers have less access to land, credit, training, and basic education even as women make key contributions to plant care, harvest, and processing coffee. Research has shown that when women are empowered to make decisions, including financial decisions about their coffee farms, families and community are more successful and their needs are better met.
We purchase 84 and 85 point coffees from smallholder farmers in Huehuetenango each year to blend into a balanced, classic profile for coffee roasters around the world - each unique lot has full transparency and is traceable to the farm level. For the Sisterhood blend, we used these same guidelines but selected only coffees produced by women coffee farmers. These women also receive a premium for contributing coffee to this special blend.
