Our commitment to staying true speaks to deeper, more meaningful impact.

Our partners at Raw Material have established its core operations out of the municipality of Ermera, the largest coffee-producing of the total 13 municipalities in Timor-Leste. Widespread poverty threatens over 40% of the country's population. Raw Material's farmers are now capable of producing award-winning coffees, exporting over 90% of their output at 2x – 3x above the average nation's coffee price. We aim to gain consumer loyalty through our positive impact, creating a coffee community that people identify with and want to be a part of, with a product based on values they can connect to.
