The whole team of L'Arbre à Café wishes you a very nice year with our coffees. Our best wishes!
The years go by but our priority does not change: to do good and good to the earth as well as to people, and this since 2009.
A look back at our key moments of 2021:
- January: Delivery of more than 300kg of coffee for the #chefsaveclessoignants operation initiated by TipToque and supported by Stéphane Méjanès and Guillaume Gomez
- March: 3 trips in search of the best coffees and 8 producers visited.
Tour in Panama with Jamison Savage, Ratibor and Tessie Hartmann, Justin Boudemane and Wilford Lamastus whose coffees you can find on our website
- April : 633 contributors on the agricultural crowdfunding platform Miimosa for the development of our biodynamic farm in Mariposa (Peru). A first achievement and the starting point of an incredible adventure!
- July: Pre-harvest of our first coffee trees planted two and a half years ago, in diversified agroforestry and biodynamic farming.
- August: L'Arbre à Café becomes Bcorp certified after one year of auditing. Confirmation and certification of our work for over 12 years.
- October: Producer trips to meet talented winemakers like Benoît Barret and Hélène and Bertrand Gautherot, and great chefs with their fantastic teams like Maison Pic, the Holguin family of La Finca Inmaculada, Wilford Lamastus of La Finca Elida and Jamison Savage of La Finca Deborah.
2021 for L'Arbre à Café is also:
- a year rich in events and fairs: Le Vin de Mes Amis, Paris Coffee Show, Omnivore, Rio Coffee Nation, Festival Cafe,...
- podcasts and articles on specialty coffee with Ecotable, On va déguster, Place du Marché and Très Très Bon with François Régis Gaudry, Bande de food, Blakemag, France Bleue and Gourmet cup
It also means nearly 4 million espresso beans extracted, nearly 40 sommeliers trained in coffee, more than 100 customers trained in our new school and 8 online masterclasses.
A very big thank you to our producers, partners, teams, professional and private customers. The adventure is so beautiful thanks to you!
Still a lot of nice projects for 2022, stay tuned!
