Amit from Kokoro coffee excitedly sent over some unique looking coffee samples to us at G-shot coffee roastery, around February this year. When we roasted these samples we were intrigued by an intrinsically unique flavour profile that we had not been exposed to in all these years of tasting coffee from all across India. When we asked him where he plucked these beans from, he had an interesting story to tell:
Kokoro coffee, has been working closely with small farmers in Dumbriguda Mandal in the stunning Araku Valley. Their vision is to help farmers craft exceptional coffee by providing education as well as centralized harvesting/processing facilities so they can sell their produce at a fair price, hence supporting their livelihoods and fostering economic stability within the community. To begin with, Kokoro is ensuring this by purchasing all the coffee produced directly from the community. With every purchase, they are reinvesting all profits back into the community, focusing specifically on two crucial areas: education and women's empowerment. Education is the cornerstone of progress, and they are passionate about providing access to quality education for the children of Araku Valley. Through scholarships, educational programs, and infrastructure development, they aim to create a brighter future for generations to come.
We are supporting Project Sarada and the incredible work Kokoro coffee is doing with the farmers of Dumbriguda with all our love. We hope to showcase incredible coffees from this region in years to come and make a positive impact on the socio-economic lives of the producers.
