“We don’t want to buy and will never buy commercial chemical filled coffee. However, in the current pool of specialty coffee only 5% is certified organic. We are frustrated that Organic Certified products are often sometimes damaging the farmers they aim to support. Some specialty growers can’t sell for the higher prices need to obtain certification. We have discovered a lot of exceedingly high quality coffees that are organically grown in very small quantities that financially isn’t viable to certify. Refinery gives us the chance to support smaller hard working farmers by paying the appropriate amounts for their labour. “
