Haiti: Blue Pine, Central Plateau
$13.06
Out of stock
This Haiti coffee comes from APCAB Coop in the Central Plateau, a cooperative with roughly 680 growers and a reputation for producing coffees that are smooth and creamy in character. One of the most meaningful details in this lot’s story is that it is shade grown, a rarity in Haiti where many areas have experienced significant deforestation and reduced forest cover. Shade growing signals a more protective approach to the farm environment, supporting long term resilience and helping maintain a healthier ecosystem around coffee plants. It also reflects the kind of forest cover that is increasingly uncommon in the region, making this coffee stand out not only for cup quality but for the conditions it is grown in. APCAB’s work is also tied to a value based market relationship: the cooperative is paid roughly 300% higher than the Fair Trade minimum, not as a donation, but as compensation for an exceptional product. That pricing structure matters because it supports grower sustainability and reinforces quality incentives across the cooperative. This coffee is washed and grown around 1,300 masl, a combination that supports a clean structure and a composed cup profile. Roasted to a medium level, it is designed to feel balanced and complete, with a smooth body and a polished finish that performs well across daily filter brewing and espresso.
