East Timor Cooperative Cafe Timor (CCT) Organic Fair Trade SHG Gourmet Fresh Roasted Coffee Beans

East Timor Cooperative Cafe Timor (CCT) is organic, shade grown, and fair trade certified gourmet fresh roasted coffee beans.

East Timor Cooperative Cafe Timor (CCT) is organic, shade grown, and fair trade certified gourmet fresh roasted coffee beans. Timor is a tiny island between Australia and Sulawesi, annexed by Indonesia and liberated in a referendum several years ago. Small scale gourmet coffee bean farming was jump-started before the independence by cooperative farming associations with funding by USAID grants to revitalize the rural economy and give small farmers a cash crop. The cup profile is clean more like a Java coffee bean. The aroma has distinct leather notes, winy fruit, and milk chocolate. In the cup the wine tones deepen and take on an almost smoky edge. With a clean, sweet, and grape-like finish.
