Fairtrade® Organic Guatemala

The famous ruins of Tikal are the inspiration for the label of our Guatemala coffee. Tikal is believed to be the oldest and the largest of the Mayan cities. As famed and intricate as these ancient ruins are, we are equally excited to bring you one of our most intricate beans for your enjoyment at home. These beans are Certified Strictly High Grown (SFB): this coffee is grown at high altitudes with low temperatures where fruit matures slowly, producing hard, dense, nutrient-rich beans. We note flavors of dark chocolate, almond, and toffee -- topped off with a brights fruit undertones.

Farm Information:

This coffee comes from the Apicus COOP in the northern Huehuetenango region. The COOP has 200 members who have been working together for over 10 years to produce fantastic organic coffees. The high altitude, focus on cup quality and the use of reliable milling practices ensures a superior coffee year after year.

Statement of Sustainability:

• The majority of our shipping materials are curbside recyclable, and all of our Tiki Tea packaging is compostable. 

• We only ethically source our coffee from small-lot farmers. We offer several Fairtrade® Certified, and organically grown options.

• With every purchase, we fund the planting of 1 tree through the 'Trees for Education Program', formed by the collaborative efforts of UNASDG, Imani's Board and Embu officials. After year 1, the tree is included in the program that leverages the International Carbon Market through the UNASDG, and provides desperately needed funding for a school for orphans in Kenya.

• We are a member of the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA), which has the purpose to “foster global coffee communities to support activities to make coffee a more sustainable, equitable, and thriving activity for the whole value chain.”

• We are a member of World Coffee Research. This is a non-profit that unites the global coffee-industry towards a sustainable supply of quality coffee for generations to come. Not just because coffee tastes good, but to protect the livelihoods of thousands in many of the world’s poorest regions. It assists farmers with the tools, knowledge and plants necessary to adapt to the changing climate. It includes research on new varieties, techniques, and support to small, local farmers who are often the furthest from innovation.
