One of our signature offerings, Benchmark is cultivated to be equally delicious as brewed coffee as it is pulled as espresso. With a more developed roast, we pull out deep notes of dark chocolate, molasses and toasted nuts. We created Benchmark to satisfy those customers looking for a rich, smooth, balanced, and robust coffee. One 12 ounce bag We are committed to sourcing at least 80% of our coffees from Rainforest Alliance certified producers. This means that farmers use methods that support three pillars of sustainability: social, economic, and environmental. Independent, third-party auditors evaluate farmers against requirements in all three areas before awarding or renewing certification. Because Rainforest Alliance certification extends beyond the farm, all actors in the supply stream, including roasters as the final stewards of the coffee, must adhere to a rigorous set of standards. We’re proud to hold this accountability—it’s an essential part of contributing to a more equitable and sustainable supply stream. Who is Joe Coffee?
