The beans in this coffee were grown in the moist deciduous forests of BR Hills of Karnataka by smallscale growers who abide by biodiversityfriendly practices. This means that they abstain from the use of chemical pesticides, and ensure conservation of plant and species diversity, and soil and water quality.
The Artisans
The Arabica coffee beans have been harvested by smallscale producers in Yerakannagadde podu, and hand pulped in BR Hills by members of the Biligiri Soligara Coffee Belegarara Sangha a coffee producers' organisation. Through the producer organisation, growers' capacities are built to engage in markets in ways that feel fair, transparent and democratic. The brand guarantees livelihood security and recognition for coffee producers with best practices and assures prices that are consistently above the declared market price at the time of purchase.

By supporting ecologically sustainable coffee, you make it an economically viable for small growers to continue their commitment to biodiversity conservation.
