January 2015 heralds a whistlestop tour of South America to visit our producers and maintain the fantastic relationships we've worked to build.
We’ve always been proud to establish and maintain excellent relationships with our producer partners around the world. In the past we have visited growers in Kenya, Costa Rica, Colombia and more. And 2015 will herald the arrival of yet another whistle-stop tour – this time in South America.
Our founder and director, Bryan Unkles, will visit three countries in eight days, taking in Guatemala, El Salvador and Costa Rica. His visit to Guatemala is especially exciting as the Guaya’b cooperative there is the supplier of our new Bird Friendly coffee, which we launched at the end of 2014 with the SHOP and Smithsonian Institution.
To take the journey along with Bryan follow this link to his blog, which will be regularly updated throughout the trip. It’s the perfect opportunity to see how your coffee travels from bean to cup.
