Buying Green Coffee from Bellwether Means Positive Impact at the Coffee Farm Level.


Bellwether’s green coffee buying principles ensure that we establish and maintain relationships with coffee growers and cooperatives who align with our values. Our sustainable coffee buying principles are focused on quality, traceability, and sustainability. 

Quality: We travel to origin and work with incredible importers to understand every coffee’s story with the goal of humanizing the farmer behind each cup. We go through hundreds of samples a year to ensure every Bellwether customer receives the best coffee offerings available. We find the balance between quality coffee and the cost to obtain it, never compromising or settling for industry standards and instead, constantly pushing to define higher ones.

Traceability: We strive to ensure that farmers are getting paid fairly by creating maximum financial traceability along the supply chain. 

Sustainability: Three main areas of sustainability we are focused on include economic empowerment, environmental sustainability, and gender equality.

  • Economic empowerment: We strive to pay farmers fair prices based on what it costs them to produce coffee, rather than what the market prices tell us we should pay.
  • Environmental sustainability: We partner with importers, farmers, and cooperatives who are investing at the farm level to address environmental issues related to climate change, habitat preservation, and reducing pollution. 
  • Gender equality: We align with growers who are committed to empowering people of all genders.

By purchasing green coffee from Bellwether, you're having a direct positive impact on coffee producers around the world.

Brazil Parceiros Do Cafe (MAR 23) (132 pound bag)

Fudge, Almond Brittle, Medjool Date

The Brazil Parceiros is a fantastically approachable, yet delightful coffee. A truly versatile and engaging offering, it exhibits a wide spectrum of flavors. From notes of almond brittle and vanilla in its lighter interpretations to fudge and Medjool dates in its darker forms, this coffee can really cover all the bases. Across all roast levels, this coffee does an excellent job of maintaining body, texture and sweetness. We recommend serving as a sweet and hearty batch brew, or as a balanced shot of espresso with notes of fudge and peanut brittle that pair excellently with milk.

$4

Colombia Magia del Campo (154 pound bag)

Blood Orange, Chocolate, Bing Cherry

This is an exceptional lot of the Colombia Magia del Campo. We love the deep sweetness, bright acidity and juicy body in this harvest. Light and medium roasts displayed notes of blood orange, caramel, tart cherry, and praline, all lifted up by a beautiful acidity and juicy body. Darker roasts exhibited notes of bittersweet chocolate, crème brûlée and toasted almond.

$2.85

Decaf Colombia Palmera (154 pound bag)

Vanilla, Caramel, Cinnamon

Decaf Colombia Palmera is deliciously sweet with a full body and medium acidity. This decaf is very clean and balanced with notes of vanilla, cinnamon, and a caramel-like sweetness.

$2.86

Ethiopia Guji Natural (132 pound bag)

Blueberry, Elderflower Liqueur, Milk Chocolate

This is one of our favorite naturally processed Ethiopian coffees yet. Complex, floral and fruity with a milk chocolate backbone. We love this as a light roast, with notes of elderflower liqueur, lavender, blackberry and blueberry. This coffee also works well in darker roast profiles with more balanced berry notes, bergamot, and baker's chocolate.


$4

Ethiopia Limmu Kossa Washed 2020 Lot (132 pound bag)

Peach, Lime, Honey

Farm manager Giday Berhe implements strict procedures and modern techniques for planting, pruning, and renovation and the same attention to detail extends through the farm's quality control procedures during picking, washing, drying, storing and transporting. The resulting cup is clean and bright, with notes of stone fruit and lime.

$3.90

Guatemala Manos de Mujer (JUL 22) (152 pound bag)

Tart Cherry, Cola, Toasted Marshmallow

The 2022 lot of Guatemala Manos de Mujer exhibits many of the same exceptional qualities from prior harvests, with sweetness and balance across the roast spectrum. This year, lighter roasts display a bright acidity, juicy body and notes of tart cherry, honey, maple syrup, stone fruit, and vanilla. Darker roast styles taste fantastic with a syrupy body and concentrated sweetness that takes the form of fudge, cola, dulce de leche and toasted marshmallow. This coffee shines at all roast levels and works very well in any brew method, but we particularly enjoyed this coffee as deliciously sweet single-origin espresso.

$5.07

Kenya Mandela Estate (132 pound bag)

Black Currant, Kumquat, Maple Syrup

The Kenya Mandela Estate is an exceptional coffee that has a restrained acidity, depth of sweetness and is very balanced across the roast spectrum. Roasts on the lighter end are bright, but not overwhelmingly so and we tasted notes of kumquat, gooseberry, black currant and raw sugar. Darker roasts tame the acidity further and amplify the layers of sweetness with notes of black currant, toasted marshmallow and maple. This is a versatile coffee that would work well in a blend, as a drip coffee, and especially as a maple and citrus sweet single-origin espresso.

$5.82

Mexico Reserva El Triunfo (152 pound bag)

Brown Sugar, Toasted Marshmallow, Spice

The Mexico Reserva El Triunfo has become a favorite at Bellwether. This coffee exhibits layers of deep sweetness, an exceptionally syrupy body and a well-balanced acidity. Tasting the lighter roasts we got notes of tamarind, raw sugar, toasted walnut, vanilla and caramel. When moving darker on the roast spectrum the coffees produced deeper notes of toasted marshmallow, spice, dark chocolate, and brown sugar. This is a coffee that has all around appeal and tastes great across all roast levels and brew methods.

$2.87

Rwanda Dukude Kawa Musasa (132 pound bag)

Honey, Dried Apricot, Toffee

The Rwanda Dukunde Kawa Musasa is an outstanding coffee that is complex, balanced, and very sweet. A delicious and versatile coffee at all roast levels, we tasted notes of honey, apricot and macadamia nut at lighter roast levels and notes brown sugar, molasses, and toffee.

$2.94

Sumatra Lintong (132 pound bag)

Cacao Nib, Nougat, Molasses

The Sumatra Lintong exhibits some classic elements of this region with a thick body, mellow acidity, and deep sweetness, but this lot also displays noticeable clarity and balance. Lighter roasts were very clean and sweet, with notes of fruit leather, brown sugar, vanilla, nougat and had a slight earthiness. Deeper notes of molasses, dark chocolate, and pipe tobacco along with a heavy body and mellow acidity were present in darker roast styles. This coffee works very well as a heavy bodied batch brew or in a blend to add body and sweetness.
