Nature Nearby Blend

DRY CHERRY, TOASTED COCONUT, DARK CHOCOLATE

In collaboration with the Land Conservancy of West Michigan, we've crafted a blend to celebrate their 50 years of preservation work along the lakeshore. Captivating and grounding as a blooming prairie, expect notes of dry cherry, toasted coconut, and a bold chocolatey finish. $1 per bag goes to support LCWM's continued efforts to "Keep Nature Nearby."

How to brew

With its grounding notes of dry cherry, toasted coconut, and a bold chocolatey finish, the Nature Nearby Blend is best enjoyed in a Chemex. The Chemex’s thick paper filter produces a clean, smooth cup that brings clarity to the dry cherry and toasted coconut notes, while the balanced extraction allows the blend’s rich chocolatey finish to shine. The result is a crisp yet comforting brew that captures the character of the lakeshore and makes for an especially enjoyable way to “Keep Nature Nearby.”

Whew, this is a question! Aldea is different for 3 main reasons. 

First, Aldea grew out of a non-profit organization working in Honduras. Through this relationship, we can purchase coffee directly from the farmer and pay our farmers at a minimum, 50% above fair-trade. 

Second, we roast our coffee in small batches of 15 pounds at a time. This allows us to have more control over our profiles, and maintain consistency batch to batch. 

Third, we became a Certified B Corp in 2020. Certified B Corps are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. This certification holds us accountable to make the best decisions for our employees, the coffee farmers, and the communities we work in. 

Aldea Coffee is a people-and-planet-before-profit, B Corp. By partnering directly with farmers, roasting specialty coffee, and serving you, we strive to bring the highest level of social and environmental engagement to all the communities in which we work.

We are currently roasting full days, Monday through Friday. So, yes! Your coffee should be freshly roasted, and ready to drink upon receiving. Our roastery team is incredibly mindful about ensuring your coffee will be at its best when it arrives to you.
