Our importing partners

The most important determining factor to the success of a roaster is a high-quality green coffee. When a roaster starts with excellent green coffee the rest is simple: maintain and highlight quality in the cup. Cafe Imports has been thoughtfully sourcing specialty coffee and building relationships at origin for over 30 years. As our partner for green coffee and education, we rely on their experienced sensory and sales teams to provide us with fresh-crop coffees that are interesting and appealing to our students and customers. We sourced the Decaf Cajamarca and the Women Producers’ coffees from Cafe Imports. 

For this iteration of our Roasters’ Brew Box, we also sourced single-producer coffees from Red Fox Coffee Merchants who’s home base is in California, but also has an office in Lima, Peru. The team at the Lima office continues to develop producer relationships and work closely with those partners – like the COOPBAM cooperative – where producers Edwar and Luis produce.
