Fair Trade coffee roasters

Fair-trade certification guarantees farmers a price floor and community premiums; many roasters go further with direct trade — buying straight from farms they visit and often paying above fair-trade rates, with the receipts published. Either way, these roasters put sourcing relationships at the front of what they do. The 245 roasters below are known for it — use the map to find the closest one.

Specialty tags come from each roaster's own website and menus, plus customer reviews; offerings rotate, so check current menus before a special trip.
