☀️ Coffee with a Conscience
Every cup of coffee tells a story, one that starts thousands of miles away, high in the mountains where fertile soil, climate, and human dedication come together.
At Latitude 23.5° Coffee & Tea, we believe great coffee should do more than taste good it should do good.
That’s why our sourcing philosophy goes beyond transactions. Each bean we roast carries the care, culture, and craftsmanship of the people and places it comes from.
🌱 What “Ethical Sourcing” Really Means
In the world of coffee, ethical sourcing isn’t just a trend, it’s a long-term commitment.
For us, it means:
- Fair compensation for farmers so their communities can thrive sustainably.
- Environmental responsibility through eco-friendly and regenerative farming practices.
- Transparency and traceability, knowing exactly where and how our beans are grown.
- Long-term partnerships that promote mutual respect, quality, and growth.
When you brew a cup of Latitude coffee, you’re joining a global effort that values people, planet, and purpose equally.
🌍 Our Farm Direct Partnerships
Through our Farm Direct Program, we collaborate with smallholder farmers and cooperatives across Latin America, Africa, and Asia, regions that share our dedication to quality, sustainability, and authenticity.
Each partnership is built on trust and shared values, not just contracts.
Together, we focus on sustainable cultivation, fair wages, and continuous improvement in farming and processing methods.
These relationships allow us to bring you coffees that truly express the character of their origins:
- 🌿 Latin America: smooth, balanced profiles with notes of chocolate and caramel.
- 🌾 Africa: bright, fruity coffees with floral aromatics and vibrant acidity.
- 🌋 Asia: rich, earthy flavors with deep body and natural sweetness.
Every roast is a reflection of these diverse landscapes, and the hands that nurture them.

🔥 Why Direct Relationships Matter
By working directly with producers, we eliminate unnecessary intermediaries and ensure a fairer, more transparent value chain.
This approach allows us to:
- ✅ Support farming families with stable income and reinvestment opportunities.
- ✅ Maintain strict quality control and traceability from harvest to roast.
- ✅ Source exceptional beans that express the authentic flavor of each region.
“When you know the hands that picked your beans, every roast becomes personal.” - Latitude Roasting Team
🤝 A Shared Commitment to Quality
Our roasting team treats these partnerships as collaborations rooted in respect and communication.
We exchange knowledge with farmers, share feedback on flavor profiles, and adapt roasting techniques to highlight the best in every harvest.
This partnership between growers and roasters creates something greater than a product, it creates connection.
