This blend beautifully balances soft notes of chocolate with citric over tones giving it a fruitiness whilst adding natural sweetness. Puro Vida is part of Fairtrade’s Living Income Reference Price (LIRP), ensuring that the growers receive even more for their harvest. But it’s also helping to plant a better future, transforming coffee farms into agroforestry projects and enabling the growers to both generate and sell Carbon Removal Units (CRU) through the Acorn Programme. It’s through these CRU’s that Puro Vida is certified carbon neutral.

Cooperativa Agraria Norandino formerly CEPICAFE, are found in the region of Piura, coffee here is grown at 1800m above sea level by 6,600 smallholder producers who hand pick the beans in June-October, wash, clean by hand and then sun dry their harvest.

COCREBISTOL are positioned in the west of Honduras in Santa Teresa. Coffee here is grown at approximately 1400m above sea level by 72 smallholder (18 women and 54 men) producers who hand pick the beans in November, wash, clean by hand and then sun dry their harvest.
NB. Climate change, harvests, politics, economics and many other factors demand that from time to time we need to also source coffee from other Fairtrade certified co-operatives in these countries.
