This is the second harvest we’ve roasted from Eder, splitting it with our neighbors Chance Coffee across the river in Windsor. As part of Cafe Colis Resistencia, the Jimenez family has fought the imperialist Pan American Silver daily for 10 years, both through direct action at the Escobal mine and in court.
It’d be easy to say that buying or drinking Eder’s coffee represents a more sustainable coffee industry, but it doesn’t. Producers in Mataquescuintla are experiencing rising input costs, shrinking yields and forced migration that won’t be permanently fixed just by receiving 4-5x market pricing. Whatever we pay for coffee, this economic system built on the exploitation of people and land isn’t fixable - it must be replaced in whole. Eder’s Resistencia must be all of ours! In solidarity, we believe a better world is possible.
This coffee is easy to brew and tastes smooth and rich with a variety of preparations! Brew it how you usually brew other espy coffees.
