Description

The Shuar community, indigenous to Ecuador's Morona Santiago region, cultivates coffee with a deep respect for nature. Located between the Sierra and the Amazon, their land is rich with biodiversity, rainfall, and fertile volcanic soil—ideal for coffee grown through sustainable agroforestry practices. For the Shuar, coffee farming is a way to honour Mother Nature.

In 2023, 78 Shuar farmers produced their first coffee harvest under a brand showcasing their remarkable beans. Grown at elevations between 1,100 and 2,000 meters, their small-scale farms typically span about 1 hectare, with many using shared wet mills to process their coffee. Shuar coffee production is intertwined with tradition and spirituality.

Through rituals, they call upon deities like Nunkui, symbolising fertility, to bless their crops and ensure a prosperous harvest.

Roaster

Marvell St Coffee Roasters

Marvell St select and roast coffees that are balanced, naturally sweet and free of defects, believing in minimal intervention, both on the farm level, and when roasting the raw green product. This philosophy leads them to buy the best quality coffee from Central and South America, West Africa as well as locally from Byron Bay. On a community level, they support businesses that operate with a shared intent to benefit the local community and environment.  

As a growing company they are conscious of their impact on the environment, and try to make as little impact as possible. They use a Loring Smart roaster designed to be extremely efficient and low emission. They hand deliver local orders in reuseable buckets saving about 250,000 coffee bags yearly from going into landfill. Their retail coffee bags are 100% recyclable and they make their shipping satchels from the materials their green beans are stored in.
