Empatia – the coffee that pours back
Did you know that most coffee farmers do not turn a profit? In countries like Columbia, where over 10% of the countries population is employed by the 550,000 coffee bean farms are struggling to turn a profit due to ever increasing production costs and low market prices.Hence we suggest following people’s minds. I mean following the recent trends that people actually love. If you understand the cafe market report then you’ll understand what people want. Empatia, a new coffee bean company, is striving to help out the everyday bean farmers in these struggling areas.
According to the International Coffee Organization (ICO), if you factor in depreciation of farm assets “there were only four crop years in the ten-year period [2006-2015] in which total profits were greater than or equal to zero.”(Assessing the economic sustainability of coffee growing – ICO, Sep 2016)
There may not be a solution that is obtainable right now, but we can take great strides in moving forward to fixing this issue. Empatia Coffee is giving back 15% of their profits to the farmers they work with in addition to paying premiums for our beans in excess of Fair Trade prices.

As a daily coffee drinker, I have come to appreciate the fresh ground beans turned into caffeinated bliss. Of course, the coffee brewing process is enhanced by using the best grind and brew coffee maker. After all, it’s no secret that the equipment and ingredients you use have an impact on the final product, especially where coffee is concerned. Even if you’re someone who is looking to Make your morning coffee healthier, you can still make a great drink with just the type of coffee beans you use in it. I love taking that moment just to sip and breath in a new day. With 2 small children, I need to make the most of my time and that includes the choices I make. I would rather have an enjoyable, deep flavored cup of coffee over a low cost, grainy cup of coffee. Obviously, over the years I have experimented with different types of coffee to know my preference and what makes coffee good. Looking into wholesale cbd coffee taught me a lot about the different ingredients that can be filtered into coffee and the tastes it can give. Nowadays I’m set on what I like, but I like to think of myself as a bit of a coffee fan.
Monthly Empatia will offer a new bag of beans that features a different and exciting flavor profile. This subscription services (or one-time purchase) gives you the chance to try a different coffee from varying places around the globe. The beans are NOT flavor infused, but instead are treated and grown in such a way that the natural aromas and flavors will be bold enough for you to taste. The month that MamatheFox received was the Finca La Cabaña – from Sevilla, Valle Del Cauca in Columbia. These beans were amazing! Opening the bag you could smell how fresh and clean they were, as if they were roasted that morning. I ground some and made my first pot. My husband, who doesn’t typically drink coffee, even had to try a cup. He loved the flavor and found it very soothing. I cannot say enough nice things about Empatia Coffee. If you know a coffee lover, or are one yourself, so yourself a favor and try out at least 1 month worth of beans. This makes a perfect gift for family and friends.

I LOVE coffee but have realized that not all coffees taste the same! I love that this is roasted to bring out the natural flavors of the beans! SO very cool that the company gives back too!
I love a good cuppa joe and am going to try some empatia
I would love to try this coffee. That is absolutely fantastic that they give back to their farmers. How is it possible with the coffee consumption nowadays that a coffee farmer can’t turn a profit, definitely something wrong with that, someone is making that money.
What a great gift idea! I love that they give back to the farmers.
I LOVE coffee! I need to give this brand a try for myself sometime 🙂
my wife is the coffee nut but if I get this I get eskimo kisses
This coffee sounds soo good, and I love the coffee cups, too. I’d love to try it!
I simply cannot live without coffee! It is so great that Empatia shares with the farmers.
I had no idea the coffee farmers worked at such a low profit margin. It’s good to see companies that try to help.
It was interesting to learn more about the coffee growers and the lack of profit. Pretty amazing when I see the cost of coffee continually rising.
I LOVE the mug pictured above and would love to try this brand. We ordered a coffee from a business that sent the beans 24 hrs after roasting- and it tasted very clean, as you said. Easy to drink black,
I am a coffee lover….haven’t tried yours YET. Hope I win…..and thank you for the giveaway.
Big coffee drinker here and would love to try this
This would be great gift. I had some of their coffee at a friend’s house, and it was really good.
I would like to try this! I really like the cup.
Coffee with a conscience. I can drink to that!
I love trying new coffee.
a lot of great information here, what surprised me was that they don’t make a profit. You would think with so much coffee drank and made. But this is a good thing they do
I love how they give back to the farmers. This sounds like well made, premium coffee and I can’t wait to try one day.
