eco warrior

Our organic blend is a pleasant, delicate blend that is equally beautiful as an espresso or through milk. It tastes like milk chocolate, sweet spice, raisin & warm hugs.

Eco Warrior cares for the earth and all who call her home. Socially conscious, organic and sustainably farmed. This beautiful coffee is delicate and buttery with a smooth finish.

This blend also contributes to orangutan conservation & 5% of all purchases are donated back to our favourite charities & community initiatives (more below).

Our Eco Warrior blend is currently made up of 2 delicious single origins from Indonesia & Peru. Each season, we update the blend with fresh crop singles aiming to keep the flavour profile as consistent as possible. So you know the beans are always fresh, but it tastes like the coffee you know & love!

This one’s for the game-changers who want to drink awesome coffee while solving the world’s issues.

We’ve carefully sourced both of the origins that make up our Eco Warrior blend from the following farms, and while the Peruvian component might differ occassionally, our partnership with OCP is a long-standing one:

origin: gayo highands, sumatra, indonesia
processing method: traditional wet-hulled
species: arabica
varietal: s795
elevation: 1500-2070m above sea level

The Orangutan Coffee Project in Indonesia, which we’ve supported since 2018, is a 360-degree project focused around two main initiatives. First, helping Sumatran coffee farmers operate environmentally friendly coffee plantations to help protect the fragile eco-system.

The second, supports the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Program (SOCP) that cares for, protects & rehabilitates injured, orphaned & rescued orangutans, all while fighting deforestation!

We’ve committed to an ongoing partnership with OCP. Some of our crew were lucky enough to visit Sumatra to see firsthand how the programs are benefiting the communities, rainforest conservation efforts & the endangered local wildlife. If you’d like to read more about this project…we wrote an article about it here.

This coffee adds notes of sweet spice, cacao nibs & a pleasant herbal flavour to the blend. Plus the round, juicy body & lingering aftertaste.

origin: jaén, cajamarca, peru
processing method: washed
species: arabica
varietal: catimor, caturra, bourbon, typica
elevation: 1650-1800m above sea level

President of the Lima Coffees exporting organisation, Rony Lavan has already established himself as standing at the fore of microlot-quality coffees in Cajamarca. In his first year with Lima Coffees, he entered the national competition and won.

Rony is an ambitious & quality-driven cupper who has spent his career trying to carve out better and bolder coffees from small producers in Peru. While the country is emerging as a specialty market after many years of focusing on bigger lots and certifications, Rony’s passion is with identifying and developing the top scores and the best cups.

A large part of coffee farmland in Peru is certified organic (around 90,000 hectares), making it one of the places with the highest percentage of certified-organic exported coffee in the world. It is estimated that 25–30% of the smallholder farmers in Peru are members of democratically organised cooperatives and associations, making it easier to source FTO-certified lots.

The vast majority of coffee in Perú is washed, and many producers own their own wet-milling equipment. Smallholder farmer also deliver their cherry to a central processing unit or cooperative like Lima Coffee for processing. These coffees are depulped the same day they are harvested, and given a 12–18-hour open-air fermentation before being washed clean of mucilage and dried on patios or raised beds.

This Peruvian fair-trade, organic coffee is juicy, sweet and balanced. It adds subtle raisin, plum and caramel notes to the blend.

As we touched on above, in addition to supporting orangutan & rainforest conservation, 5% of Eco Warrior bean & merch sales are donated to a charity, initiative or organisation of our choosing each quarter. You can head to our community initiatives blog post for updates on where we’re donating our dollars & learn about the initiatives Eco Warrior is currently supporting.
