Good coffee shouldn’t come with a mystery.
Where exactly does the coffee grow?
Our coffees are grown on our family farms in Honduras — in Copán at about 1,180 meters and in Lempira at about 1,525 meters above sea level. Every coffee we sell identifies where it came from, so “Honduras” is the beginning of the answer, not the end of it.
What does “ground-to-ground” mean?
It means staying connected to the coffee from where it grows through the work that gets it into your cup. We grow, harvest, process, and dry our coffee on our farms, work with a specialty roaster in Honduras to roast and package it, and sell it directly ourselves.
As White Flower grows, that same principle applies to coffees from other producers: if we didn’t grow it, we will know who did and buy directly from them.
How is the coffee processed?
The cherries are picked by hand, depulped, fermented, washed, and dried in solar driers in Honduras. The details vary by coffee, so each product page tells you how that particular lot was handled.
Where is the coffee roasted and packed?
In Honduras. We work with a woman-owned specialty roasting business that roasts and packages the coffee here before it comes to market.
What does the coffee taste like?
Each coffee tastes a little different because of where it grew, its elevation, processing, and roast. We list the tasting notes for each coffee on its product page so you can choose by the cup you want rather than by a generic roast label.
What size are the bags?
Our coffees are sold in 12 oz bags.
How does the subscription work?
Choose your coffee and how many bags you want each month, and we keep them coming on a regular schedule so you don’t have to remember to reorder.
The coffee is not reserved from a separate subscription inventory. Your subscription is simply a standing order for the coffee you already drink, while it is available.
Where do you ship?
We ship throughout the United States from Oklahoma using standard shipping. Shipping cost is calculated at checkout based on the size of your order and destination.
Why do you talk about wages?
Because coffee takes a lot of hands. The people pruning, picking, carrying, processing, drying, and preparing the coffee contribute to what makes it valuable.
We pay above-market wages on our farms because we believe the people doing that work should share in the value they help create.
