Caffè Uno Automatico

You want a coffee that works in everyday life. Without tweaking. Without stress. But still with character. Caffè Uno Automatico is made for just that. This house blend was developed specifically for fully automatic machines and combines organic cultivation with fair sourcing and a taste that immediately wins you over. At the same time, the coffee remains smooth, well-rounded and reliable. Caffè Uno describes it as suitable for everyday use, honest and uncompromisingly good. A coffee that accompanies you and doesn't lecture you. The first sip reveals how balanced this blend is. Chocolatey and nutty notes are at the forefront, supported by plenty of body and very little acidity. The Brazilian Arabica brings a sweet milk chocolate depth to the cup, while the Indian Robusta responds with caramel, nut and a clean, long finish. The result is a well-rounded, harmonious coffee that is neither jarring nor boring, which is precisely why it is just as popular with guests as it is with die-hard coffee nerds. Caffè Uno Automatico feels right at home in fully automatic machines. The roast is balanced so that extraction, crema and flavour are just right, even without fine-tuning. Whether as an espresso, cappuccino or café crème, this coffee remains stable and good-natured. It also shows its strengths in the Bialetti, delivering a strong, well-rounded cup with lots of chocolate and little acidity. A coffee that takes the work off your hands and simply works. The blend consists of equal parts Brazilian Arabica from Fazenda Dutra, pulped natural processed, and Indian Robusta, washed processed. The coffee is organically grown and fair trade. The roast is in the upper mid-range, giving it plenty of body, moderate sweetness and a deliberately restrained acidity. Behind the coffee is Caffè UNO, a roastery in Baden where industrial history meets honest craftsmanship. Here, only what is needed is roasted, in small batches and with a clear philosophy. That's exactly what you taste in every cup.

Val&tins Garden Isule Pure, Uganda

Single origin Arabica coffee from the highlands of western Uganda. Isule Pure has a fruity flavour with notes of berries and caramel. With a medium roast, the subtle flavour nuances are retained and is ideal for preparing as an espresso or coffee drink with milk.The Isule coffee plantation is located at the foot of the Rwenzori massif in western Uganda, also known as the Mountains of the Moon. The ripe cherries are picked by hand, washed and dried in the sun. The Pure Isule is grown biodynamically by the farmers of the small Katabukenene cooperative, free from pesticides or artificial fertilisers.The Rwenzori Massif is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its high ecological importance. The Greek geographer Ptolemy wrote about the legendary "Mountains of the Moon", where the Nile is said to have originated. Trees covered in dense lichen and unspoilt plants line the path to one of the most beautiful natural paradises in Central Africa. Despite its close proximity to the equator, the climate is pleasantly mild and the soil is rich in nutrients. These ideal conditions favour the cultivation of high-quality Arabica coffee.The plantation is located at over 1,600m above sea level. The ripe coffee cherries are carefully picked by hand on the steep slopes. The coffee is washed, processed and dried in the sun. Coffee is the only source of income for the Isule village. Every additional franc that the farmers receive per kilogramme secures the income for the families and thus also the expensive school fees for the many children.In western Uganda, the coffee is often sold to middlemen at below cost price and mixed with other low-quality varieties. In this way, coffee of varying quality ends up on the world market. val&tin garden believe that direct trade offers a real opportunity to bring producers and consumers together directly. They have therefore launched the Isulecoffee project. With this project, they provide farmers with a direct market connection and thus sustainably improve the working and living conditions in Isule.

What Fairtrade wants to achieve

Fairtrade coffee aims to improve the working and living conditions of small farmers and cooperatives. The label guarantees a minimum price that is independent of the world market, as well as an additional premium for local projects - for example in education, health or infrastructure.

Ecological aspects such as the protection of water resources and the sparing use of pesticides are also part of the standards. The idea: fair trading conditions enable producers to plan for the long term, secure their livelihoods and operate in a self-determined manner.

A good start - but not a perfect system

Despite its good intentions, Fairtrade is repeatedly criticised. Certification is expensive, especially for small cooperatives. The effects vary greatly from region to region - in some cases, farmers barely benefit from the system.

In addition, Fairtrade remains one label among many, the effects of which are difficult to understand. Also, not all of the harvest is always purchased fairly - which can lead to distorted incentives. Nevertheless, Fairtrade has been an important driving force in raising awareness of social justice in the coffee trade.

Fair is more than just a label

Not all fair trade coffee carries an official label. Models such as Direct Trade, Fair for Life or "Roasted at Origin" also focus on transparency and fair payment - often with direct contact between producers and roasters.

More than just a good feeling.

Fairtrade coffee is a step towards fairer trade - but not the only one. Here you will find carefully selected coffees that live true fairness.

Whether certified or directly traded: Every sip counts.
