THE GOOD COFFEE CARTEL

THE GOOD COFFEE CARTEL

From the very first time we heard back from Todd, he was such an authentic dude! Refreshingly so! He really got what we are trying to do here and he was excited to be a part of it. In fact, on our map of "live roasters", The Good Coffee Cartel is #1! (Thanks, Todd!)

We didn't meet Todd (or Courtney) in person yet but it's easy to see how important some things are for him and The Good Coffee Cartel just from some emails being exchanged.

He's obviously very passionate about the environment and their impact on it.

Here's some insights about them from their website:

"We want to make good products, collaborate on good projects, be good to their people, have a good impact on our environment."

They pay the farmers what the coffee is worth via direct trade and don't use any single use packaging! Coffee comes in re-usable tubs or tins and you get a discount if you bring it back to the shop to be re-filled.

They sent us some samples to try and honestly, every single one was an absolute banger. These guys are seriously good at what they do.

Good coffee. Good people. Good conscience. The Good Coffee Cartel!
