Organic fair trade coffee

Organic fair trade coffee: what does this commitment really mean for your cup of coffee? 

organic fair trade coffee combines environmentally-friendly cultivation with fair remuneration for producers. The organic label guarantees a crop free of synthetic pesticides, respectful of soil, water and biodiversity. Fair trade, on the other hand, ensures that small producers receive a guaranteed minimum price, often via local cooperatives, and benefit from decent working conditions. 

Organic does not always mean fair trade 

It's tempting to think that organic coffee beans are necessarily ethical. But this is not always the case. Some certified organic coffees are still bought via conventional channels, such as the coffee exchange, where prices fluctuate to the detriment of producers. Under these conditions, growers struggle to make a living from their work, despite their commitment to sustainable agriculture. 

Conversely, organic fair trade coffee favors long-term partnerships, often with direct links or via cooperatives. These relationships not only ensure better remuneration, but also total transparency on origin and production conditions. 

The taste of a fairer... and richer coffee 

Beyond the ethical aspect, a organic fair trade coffee is another cup experience. The care taken at every stage - from cultivation to drying and roasting - is reflected in the taste. The result: more precise aromas, balanced intensity and preserved freshness. 

And it's no coincidence: when producers are fairly remunerated, they have the means to aim for excellence. Respect for the land and for people always ends up in the cup.
