Dominican Republic Organic Peaberry

This coffee comes from a certified organic single estate in the Jarabacoa region of the Dominican Republic. The Ramirez Estate employs over 400 people. 40 percent of the workers are female and many of them are Haitian migrant workers. Workers are paid roughly 300 percent higher wages than Fair Trade standard, and the Estate uses a sizable portion of their profits to create sustainable gas recycling (to reduce emissions), water filtration (to prevent river contamination), and to donate computers and books to many of the local schools.
Cupping notes: Almond, walnut, sweet vanilla, and sweet orange cream finish with low acidity. Roast this one low and slow to caramelize sugars. Does well at light, medium, or dark.
