Café Feminista: México Montze Olvera celebrates women producers creating opportunity, ownership, and real economic impact through coffee. This honey-processed lot comes from Montze Olvera and Las Adelitas, a feminist ecological collective in Hidalgo, México, honoring Indigenous and campesina women historically erased from coffee’s value chain.
Montze carries a legacy of care and leadership—running her farm, training other women producers, planting specialty trees, and building community programs that link coffee production to human rights and agroecology. Every step is intentional, ensuring value stays closer to producers and that women’s work shapes the future of coffee.
In the cup, this coffee is warm and rich, with notes of papaya, Milk Duds, and candied coconut layered over a smooth, structured body. Balanced and inviting, it’s a coffee to enjoy on its own or in milk, with every sip reflecting the care, skill, and leadership of the women behind it.
This Café Feminista coffee program highlights coffee from women producers who identify with feminism, and live their lives in pursuit of equity and liberation. We know we can’t measure, much less change, what we can’t name – and the invisibility of oppression is still prevalent. In our learning journey as a green coffee buying business, we have been curious about power, the potential for change through our business, and the governing forces in our industry. The goal of this Café Feminista program is to use our platform, our business, to amplify the work of women leaders in coffee whose work will guide our path to feminist futures. Their work and perspectives are critical in reducing barriers of oppression and moving toward liberation and freedom.
