About Our Beans
At Astra, we strive to provide our customers with the highest quality, most delicious coffee there is.
All of our coffees are Single Origin, meaning the beans are from one distinct region where the coffee is grown. We use Grade 1 green beans, which are classified as Specialty Grade Coffee Beans, they are considered the highest quality that you can purchase.
We are proud to roast a number of coffee beans from Cafe Femenino, an organization of female coffee producers created in northern Peru. They have now created a never-before-existing market for women coffee farmers throughout nine countries to end the cycle of poverty, utilizing coffee as a vehicle for positive social change in their communities.
Although we will have a wide selection of coffee beans available from around the world and from different farmers, we have sought to partner with these Cafe Femenino farms to purchase green beans directly for our coffeehouse. We want our coffeehouse to be able to make a difference, no matter how big or small, not just in our own community, but on a global scale.
