Description
Malawai Mzuzu AA Women’s coffee blend is from approximately 200 small scale farmers. Altogether, the Malawi Mzuzu Cooperative is made up of approximately 4,000 small scale farmers spanning over five coffee districts. All the coffees are processed by the fully washed method and then sun dried. Mzuzu Women’s Coffee is traceable to women farmers who own their own coffee fields. The proceeds are paid directly to those women in order to give them decision-making power over their income. Additionally a $0.20/lb is paid to the Women in Coffee program. About half of this premium is paid directly to the women farmers, and the other half is used on Women’s Coffee projects determined by the participating farmers after premiums are received.
