A delectable brew with a smooth nutty flavour, Café Femenino offers up a rich and rewarding taste, with notes of blueberry and dark chocolate. Long time Jasper favourite.
What decaf should taste like. Say goodbye to supermarket brands and enjoy a full-flavoured brew without the jitters. You won't be able to tell the difference.
"Very sweet soft nutty aroma, taste is very easy on the tastebuds as it is so smooth.
I prefer to drink coffee that is not too strong and this one is perfect for that.
Only thing I regret about this purchase is only ordering 250g packet not 1kg!
You cannot go wrong with this one, seriously devine!"

Women in the remote and rural communities of Peru are often trapped in poverty, in male-dominated situations, and they have very little financial control or decision-making power.
The Café Femenino Foundation helps to break this cycle by putting money in the pockets of women (and only women) farmers across 67 communities in north east Peru.
Jasper Coffee has been working with Café Femenino since we first brought their beans into Australia in 2005.
From a humble beginning with just 34 women members, they now have over 7,000 across Latin America.
To join this cooperative and be part of the project, women must own the land, thereby owning the coffee trees and the sales of cherry can then be used to provide for their families.
They participate in all farm activities and prepare the terrain, nurseries and compost. They prepare bio fertilisers as part of the organic certification, do the harvesting, de-pulping, fermenting and drying the coffee.
Using Café Femenino Levies, the Café Femenino Foundation is now working with the women on many projects of their own choosing.
Where you buy your coffee matters. Over the years, Jasper Coffee customers have helped us support many social and economic projects for the all-women growers of the Café Femenino Foundation.
