Meeting the Benchmark
Each coffee bean is cultivated through hours of labor-intensive farming, ensuring quality and taste.
Unveiling the journey behind every sip — from farm to cup.
Behind every sip lies a narrative of labor, inequality, and history.
Explore the journey from bean to cup.
The truth is that we often lack the patience to appreciate the significant labour that goes into the coffee we enjoy every day. While an espresso takes only 25 to 30 seconds to brew, only three out of the required 64 coffee beans have been harvested during that brief period. Behind every sip lies hours of physically demanding work. This involves planting, hand-picking, drying, sorting, and roasting. Most of this work is executed by underpaid workers in the Global South, while the largest coffee consumers remain in the Global North. The gap between the swift consumption of coffee and the tedious, labour-intensive production process represents the disregarded inequality and invisibility of labour in the global coffee supply chain.
