A wonderfully complex Central American bean exhibiting a rich, medium-bodied nature with a spicy or floral acidity and a characteristic dry sensation.
In 2004, a few women in northern Peru decided to change this by co-founding Café Femenino® alongside Organic Products Trading Company. For the first time, women were recognized as coffee producers and paid for the coffee they produced.
Since then, Café Femenino® has grown into a movement empowering women in remote coffee-growing regions in nine countries. These women made sure that when you choose Café Femenino®, you are choosing more than a specialty coffee. You are choosing to help women take on leadership roles, obtain the title to the land on which they farm, and earn an extra premium for their high-quality coffee beans.
In these ways and more, choosing Café Femenino® means you are choosing to stand with women coffee farmers fighting for the credit they deserve and the voice they need to empower themselves and their communities..
