About

Our organic Timor green coffee beans are grown on the beautiful coast of East Timor. Roasted coffee beans from Timor normally have full bodied, spicy, chocolate and occasionally herbal notes. Timor green coffee beans are ideal for those who prefer a darker roast because of their ability to withstand heat, due to their dense composition.

Coffee from Timor is grown and produced by 494 small-scale farms and 16 cooperatives. The Timor varietal is a hybrid coffee that was bred for its natural resistance to diseases like coffee leaf rust. These organic Timor green coffee beans in particular are RFA certified.

Our unroasted, green coffee selection is intended for roasting purposes. Do not consume green coffee. Green coffee that has been purchased and roasted is not returnable.

Timor

The south Pacific is famous for producing coffee with lower acidity and full flavors, and Timor is no exception. The town of Maubisse, in the Ainaro District of East Timor, is home to the Cooperative Café Timor (CCT), a group of farmers who helped restore an over-400-year-old coffee crop to its former glory, despite...
