ALDEBARAN-ALEPH BEANS

Aleph-Aldebaran is a certified 100% organic Ethiopian coffee, grown with integrated agriculture that respects the planet and people: this project promotes fair trade that involves the whole supply chain and aims to raise consumer awareness.
Furthermore, the project of the Las Esquipulas Cooperative, a Slow Food presidium, supports the inclusion and empowerment of women and the communities of the villages of the Amaro Mountains and Wotto na Bultuma.

"Slow food presidium" refers to a concept that aligns with the principles of the Slow Food movement applied specifically to coffee production and consumption. The Slow Food movement originated in Italy and promotes a more mindful and sustainable approach to food and beverages. When applied to coffee, the term "slow food coffee" encompasses the following aspects:

Quality over quantity: Slow food coffee emphasizes the importance of quality over mass production. It encourages the cultivation, processing, and consumption of coffee beans that are grown with care, harvested at optimal ripeness, and processed using traditional and artisanal methods that preserve the intrinsic flavors and characteristics of the beans.

Sustainable and ethical practices: Slow food coffee promotes environmentally sustainable and socially responsible practices throughout the coffee supply chain. This includes prioritizing organic farming methods, fair trade practices, and supporting small-scale farmers who employ sustainable agricultural practices while ensuring fair wages and better working conditions.

Preservation of traditional knowledge and culture: Slow food coffee values the preservation of traditional coffee-growing and processing methods. It recognizes the cultural heritage and craftsmanship involved in producing high-quality coffee and supports the continuation of these practices. By embracing traditional techniques, slow food coffee celebrates the diversity and uniqueness of coffee varieties and flavors.
