Coffee farmer working a misty highland plantation at dawn
Charter & Code

CODE OF HONOR

We fly into hard places to get great coffee. That doesn't get to come at someone else's expense — not the grower's, not the planet's. Here's what we promise, in writing.

Tenet 01

Pay growers more.

We pay 30–60% above Fair Trade minimums, every harvest. No floor prices, no exploitative middlemen, no excuses.

Tenet 02

Trace every bean.

Every lot is named, dated, and geolocated. Scan the QR on any bag to see which farm it came from, who picked it, when it shipped, and when it was roasted.

100%Single-origin traceability
Tenet 03

Can it without the planet.

Our cans are 100% recyclable. Shipping boxes are unbleached, made from 100% post-consumer pulp.

0gSingle-use plastic per shipment
Tenet 04

Roast less, donate more.

We roast to order to cut waste, and donate unsold stock to community kitchens before it goes stale. Nothing good ends up in a landfill.

In closing

"DO RIGHT BY THE PEOPLE WHO GROW IT, OR DON'T BOTHER SELLING IT."
