Description

The Timor Fair Trade Organic beans are grown on family-owned farms (less than one hectare), which are overseen by the Cooperativa Café Timor––a group with over 20,000 members from the Ainaro, Ermera, and Lequisa districts of East Timor. They’ve funded clinics and healthcare for their community and partnered with the USDA.

Eastern Timor coffee cultivation has been around for a long time––400 years to be exact. Portuguese colonists had processed the coffee up until leaf rust disintegrated production. It wasn’t until the 1900s that the Híbrido de Timor varietal was grown successfully.

Timor Peaberry beans are extraordinary––instead of two separate beans within the cherry, the beans almost wrap around each other––it possesses a unique sweetness and is often a washed processed.

Cupping Notes: Full bodied and sharp acidity with notes of apricot and syrupy caramel overtones.
