This Fair Trade and Organic-certified coffee is sourced from family-owned farms in Nueva Segovia, Nicaragua, organized through PRODECOOP cooperative. Grown at 1,250–1,800 meters altitude, the coffee is a blend of Catuai, Caturra, Bourbon, and Typica varieties. It is fully washed and sun-dried. The medium dark roast delivers flavors of caramel apple and nut with a sweet, bright cup, medium body, and crisp, clean finish.
Douglas Pinto and his wife Daria founded Steel Cup Coffee Roasters as a family business in New Kensington, Pennsylvania. The roastery sources exclusively Fair Trade and USDA Certified Organic coffees from ethical cooperatives around the world, and their facility holds Pennsylvania Certified Organic status. All coffee is roasted in small batches on a roaster imported from Türkiye and packaged to order, with eco friendly compostable bags and only USDA approved organic cleaning products used throughout the facility. Steel Cup is a roastery where the values are baked into the operation rather than bolted on.
