Roasters Reserve – Colombia Caldas Gesha

Ethical & Sourcing Commitment
Our importer is aligned with the highest ethical standards: respect for people and place, truthful representation of images and situations, and protection of vulnerable communities. It’s our first purchase with this partner and we’re excited that York Coffee Emporium can bring a coffee that is not only exceptional in flavour but also transparent in its sourcing journey.
We’ve worked closely to ensure that imagery and messaging reflect real conditions, real people and real value — and avoid stereotypes or sensationalism.
