Last Chance for Farmer's Select Batch #4

The 2013 coffee crop is almost out, so time to pick up the (RAS Farms x Conscious Coffees) Farmer's Select Batch #4 coffee and T-shirt set before they're gone for good.

Continuing the collaboration between RAS Farms and Conscious Coffees, Batch #4 is Tafari: a medium roasted espresso from the Southern state of Sidama, grown and harvested by small-holder coffee producers organized into local cooperatives. The coffee has classic Ethiopian berry notes throughout and lots of cocoa flavors. Although developed as a semi-bright espresso, all brewing methods work well. 

“With respect, this blend of washed and un-washed Sidama coffees is named in honor of Tafari Makonnen Woldemikael, Emperor of Ethiopia from 1930 to 1974. To this day, his name represents a way of life for many people around the globe who maintain a strong commonality and union. Two coffees, One Love.”

The set is available for $33 plus $7 shipping (US Domestic shipping) by contacting RAS Farms at www.rasfarms.com or rasagriculture@yahoo.com
