Socially Sound Coffee (Fair Trade Certified) - Rain Forest Nut is a subtle, sweet, delightful coffee with tastes of vanilla, caramel, cashew, and brazil nuts.

Fragrant, buttery and rich with nutty flavors, our Fair Trade Rain Forest Nut is a sweet diversion. It's also a bit of a departure from our Fair Trade line of coffees... while it's certified Fair Trade, it's not an organic coffee.

The flavors of this cup are especially agreeable with milk, and adding sweet cream is an invitation to indulgence.

In the face of rising labor costs, one of the coops we buy from, Divisoria, in Northern Peru, has reached back to an ancient Andean indigenous concept called ayni. The Peruvian Government is rebuilding a road in the coop’s region, which is a good thing. But the government has been paying better wages than the coop farmers can for their hired help during the busy season making it hard for them to find help when they need it most. So the farmers in the coop are taking turns helping each other – in a reciprocal and rotating way – ayni – in order to get by. In addition, the coop itself has dedicated two trucks to help pick up and deliver coffee instead of farmers having to do it themselves with their own vehicles.
