coffee
We always recommend trying an array of different coffees and flavors to find what's best for you. That's why we offer our World Tour sampler pack that features each of the five cooperatives that own Pachamama. Check out our selection of rotating subscription offerings and try something new each month. You'll always receive the freshest, highest quality coffee with every shipment.
Our state of the art roastery in El Dorado Hills, CA roasts coffee every week day. Check the bottom of your bag for the roast date!
Keeping your coffee fresh will maintain the unique flavors and aromas that make a good cup. We recommend storing your coffee in an air tight container away from direct sunlight. Check out our coffee canisters for sale in our tienda. Or, if you are local to the Sacramento area you can try our refill program! Purchasing a refillable tin saves waste and keeps your coffee fresh, which is better for the planet and your cup of coffee.
While Pachamama Coffee is not Fair Trade certified, you will find that we take it one step further. Rather than rely on a middle man, Pachamama Coffee Farmer's sell their coffee directly to you through our vertically integrated business model. For more information about how this works, check out our transparency report.
All our coffee is certified organic by CCOF and USDA. We also prioritize organic ingredients in all of our café beverages.
'Shade grown' describes the agricultural method used to grow coffee. Coffee shrubs thrive under to robust shade of a diverse ecosystem made of up other fruit trees such as banana and mango. The flora and fauna protected by land dedicated to shade grown coffee production shelters wildlife, like birds, and provides food to farmer families.
