Our 2024 Turning Leaves is an incredible coffee from Onyx Coffee Importers’ Alma Guatemalan Blend Program. For three generations they’ve grown coffee in the highlands of Huehuetenango, and in the past twenty years they’ve grown to partner with other producing families, cooperatives and associations across Guatemala. Their mission is to connect these beautiful families and their coffees with roasters around the world. Their intention with Alma involves sourcing bright, fruited coffees of 85.75+ quality…coffees with a lot of soul. La Alma means the Soul, and we hope this blend will bring vitality and warmth with every sip. With balanced, classic notes of cocoa, caramel, dried fruit and maple syrup, we found a perfect fit for this year’s Turning Leaves.
For every pound of Alma sold, $0.05 goes directly to partners at Habitat for Humanity Guatemala to support their Smokeless Stove Program. These clean stoves impact families for decades by increasing indoor air quality and wood-fuel efficiency, while decreasing cooking time. From the 2021 crop Alma sales alone, 42 families were able to receive a new stove. In the future, they plan to invest in home-building origin trips with volunteers from every link in the coffee value chain.
