No consumer left behind.

 It goes without much saying that coffee can be prepared with a little bit of science, but what does coffee with a conscience really mean? For decades emerging coffee markets have built altruistic relationships with coffee producing nations at various levels that have advanced the quality of the coffee industry in general. Coffee can be conscionable but how much of it trickles down to coffee consumers at large?
  In the US, the coffee industry is growing and simultaneously evolving. Coffee consumers are now faced with a plethora of coffee shops that serve coffees in various qualities, prepared in a multitude of ways. Early in 2011 many industry analysts forecasted the price of commodity coffee to grow exponentially. In the recent months the price of commodity coffee has shown a significant decline in price increase and in some cases the prices of sourcing coffee has dropped. Going into the year many coffee shops and coffee chains made the usual price adjustments sharing some of the rising costs with consumers. It is yet to be seen if coffee will have a conscience and have the audacity of forwarding price declines to coffee consumers at large as well?
  Coffee can have a Conscience for all; farmers, producers, exporters, roasters, baristas and lastly and most importantly the resilient coffee consumers whose appetite for coffee has been unscathed even in a ghastly economy. Coffee with a conscience is the idea behind Con Ciencia Coffee. It is also an idea that will evolve so stay tuned to www.concienciacoffee.com for more news as Con Ciencia Coffee continues to develop its own identity.
