When we decided to introduce coffee to our product line, we searched hard for what we believe to be the best coffee available - for your health, for the people producing the coffee, and for the taste. Check out the amazing story about our exclusive coffee products:
History of a Great Cause
In 2005 in response to the devastation of Hurricane Stan, a relief effort was mounted and Canadian Volunteers journeyed to Central America to assist. While in the most mountainous regions where the destruction and loss of life was greatest, the Volunteers realized that there was a longer term project that needed to be addressed. Living in extreme poverty coffee farmers resorted to selling their coffee berries for as little as 10 cents a pound with no other options or resources in these remote locations. Every pound of coffee Steeped Tea sells helps the Volunteers organize farming cooperatives by providing funding for facilities needed. Educational programs are also being established which aid the farmers by giving them the ability to move past the oppression. Steeped Tea Coffee is Fair Trade Plus, as we exceed the prices paid to farmers that have been established by the TransFair Certification Organization.
Environmentally Sustainable and Responsible
Much of the world’s coffee is “sun grown”, which means forests are mowed down, birds and animals are displaced, and chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used. All to maximize the yield per acre and the number of crops that can be harvested per year. All coffee supplied by Steeped Tea is shade grown in a bird and animal friendly environment, and is completely chemical free. Our coffee plants coexist with other flora and fauna in a natural jungle setting and our farmers forage into the forest and harvest every coffee berry by hand. This method of farming has little or no impact on the environment and also helps make our coffee the healthiest you can possibly drink.
Healthy for You
All coffee supplied by Steeped Tea is grown at high altitude on mountainous volcanic regions. Plants grown on volcanic soil are low in acid and abundant with properties that promote great health. Many believe that volcanic soils are rich in rare monatomic elements essential to life. Coffee from Steeped Tea also has anti-oxidant properties because of the special way we roast and deliver it to you immediately. Many individuals that love coffee but do not drink it because of gastro-intestinal issues now enjoy our coffee and its healthy effects.
Great Taste
Great Taste is the greatest factor that impresses people who try Coffee from Steeped Tea, and will keep them coming back for more. We roast in small batches and deliver it to you immediately, so encourage your buyers to start brewing as soon as they get it, to get the maximum impact of the freshness, taste and health benefits. Great Coffee is like baking cookies, they have a shelf life of several months, but they taste best right after they leave the oven.
Overview
Great Cause, Environmentally Responsible, Healthy for You and Great Taste. All of these factors help make Coffee from Steeped Tea the Worlds Best Coffee!
