About Grind Types

Available for Recurring Delivery via Café EXPRESS.

What we love and celebrate about coffees from the Atitlan region is that the coffee farms still cultivate lovely old Bourbon varietals that have such bold and balanced and sweet flavors in the cup, as well as lush, tree-ripened fruit flavors of peach and apricot.

Heifer Hope Blend was created to support Heifer® International's fight against world hunger. With our support, Heifer helps coffee farmers diversify their incomes by raising livestock. We help raise awareness by showing people how their purchases can support sustainable development. Heifer Hope Blend has a blush of sweet, ripe fruit, sparkling acidity, and a warm, chocolaty finish.

"A coffee that I have included on my gift list to friends and family. Wonderfully fruity and vibrant. Some of my most favorite coffees are in this blend."

" Dominated by a sweetly fermented fruit that reads as a rich, brandy-toned, cherryish chocolate. This lush flavor complex is heady in the aroma and sweetly refreshing in the cup. "
— Ken Davids, CoffeeReview, Nov. 2005

This is a wonderfully versatile coffee, and as such takes kindly to most any method of brewing.

We've found this great cooperative called Asociacion Chajulense Val Vaq Quyol, which means "only one voice", located in Chajul, El Quiche, Guatemala. We've been buying their coffee for the last two years to put in Heifer Hope Blend, two Employee Origin Trip groups have visited, and even our CEO Larry Blanford visited them in January 2008. Chajulense, as we call the coop, has about 1,600 members and they're able to sell all their coffee as certified Fair Trade. The coop has also diversified their production to include cardamom, honey, milk, and cheese, they built an inn to promote local tourism, they opened an Ixil culture center, and they fund the production of traditional womens' dresses.
