The farmers have comprehensive control over various stages of post harvest processing, being located close to the cooperatives own wet mill. Members of the cooperative engage with social development projects within the wider community. They have recently implemented an alternative income project raising bees to improve pollination and produce honey.

This sweet coffee pairs beautifully with milk as a medium intensity espresso.
