Building resilience to la roya

When farmers in Mexico found themselves on the front lines of climate change as la roya—the coffee leaf rust fungus—impacted harvests, we sought ways to help them address the threat. Through a dedicated resilience fund, Equal Exchange directly contributed to the replanting and renovation efforts on members' farms. Trainings on la roya mitigation and programs to provide rust-resistant coffee seedlings helped farmers to reestablish their affected crops.

Four of our coffee team in front of the roasting machine

Our worker-owned, solar-generating roastery

At our Massachusetts HQ, our team batch-roasts coffee daily under a 1,418 panel solar array, bringing out the best flavors of each harvest. At the lighter end of the roast spectrum, we accentuate the unique fruity and floral notes within the beans. As the roast length increases, the natural sugars in the coffee beans caramelize and darken to elicit a richer body. Our darkest roasts fully express the beans’ natural oils, yielding subtle smokiness and flavors akin to dark chocolate. At every level, our expert team creates a smooth, clean, and balanced cup with reliable consistency from batch to batch.

Reviews

Cool Beans

"Great coffee, made it with the aero press, pour, and a drip, came out delicious however you're making it. Smooth flavor, little bit of chocolate, rich and creamy are apt descriptions for these beans. Good deal for good coffee, will definitely buy again!"

William L. (5/5)

Mexican roast is my wife’s

"Mexican roast is my wife’s and my favorite coffee. It has a robust flavor with low acidity, but lighter and more chocolaty than my former favorite French roast. We can’t get enough!"

Bernard R. (5/5)

Best Coffee Ever!

"The Equal Exchange organic Mexican coffee is my absolute favorite. It is described as “ rich, and creamy” and that is the perfect description. When I first tried it, I told my husband that I can actually taste the creamy. He asked how I could possibly taste creamy and I said I don’t know, but I do and I love it."

Brigid K. (5/5)

Excellent Coffee beans

"Thanks to the farmers who grow coffee beans from their works of harvest where God has produced beans possible for our drink."

Edwin B. (5/5)

Delicious but tread lightly

"Dark, very strong. I like to make my coffee on the strong side and I definitely need to cut this with something a little more mellow. Similar to a french roast, with a bit of saltiness to it. Suprisingly not bitter, but strong all the same."

Chris C. (4/5)

"Your organic coffee is always great. Long time customer."

Robert F. (5/5)

Great dark roast

"rich, smooth"

Jane H. (5/5)

Too dark and oily beans

"I wish the roast was less dark. I am drinking it so it’s not all bad but a medium blend would be much better."

AJ K. (4/5)

Love their coffee

"Love your coffee! Your service is fast and your choices are excellent."

Judith B. (5/5)

Excellent as always!

"Reminds me of the restaurant coffee in Zihua! Dark and delicious, but not overstuffed with caffeine or heartburn."
