Tropical Mountains ATHOPIO Espresso Coffee Capsules: Single Origin Coffee

For the ATHOPIO espresso, we use only organic raw coffees from Ethiopia. In this way, we support coffee farmers from our network or from our community by purchasing their gourmet organic coffee for the ATHOPIO espresso directly and without intermediaries.  This gives the coffee farmers we work with a good and fair living.

Compostable capsule alternatives for the Nespresso®* system

The coffee capsules we use conserve natural resources. That is why both the capsules and their packaging are made from purely natural materials. Since aluminium is deliberately avoided, the capsules and packaging are completely biodegradable. Read here how you can gently dispose of or compost the packaging.

Zero Waste

We consistently pursue the idea of Zero Waste. The 21 capsule containers can be refilled again and again. This is done with the Refill Bag, which is available in two different sizes.  The used up bags can be used in many ways or returned to us for reuse.

The story of Tropical Mountains fair trade organic coffee

Tropical Mountains began in 2012 as a small farm 12 hours' drive from Lima, Peru. Peruvian Gisella Iriarte and Swiss Thomas Schwegler dream of organic and fair-trade coffee - traceable from the bean in the tropical highlands to the fragrant cup at home.

Meanwhile, gourmet coffees from around the world have been added to our range, complementing the coffees from our family farm. They expand our ability to offer fair trade and certified organic coffees.

Respect makes the taste

And as Tropical Mountains evolves, we are relying on our roots: organic farming, direct fair trade and sustainable packaging. We are a member of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO), support local schools and fund charitable projects. Because we believe that respect is what makes coffee taste excellent. Respect for our employees, for the coffee plant and for nature as a whole. That's why we also offset the CO2 emissions from our value chain. Our family grows - our values remain.

I like it very much as an espresso. The taste is nice and strong, doesn't taste burnt and has great flavours. - Fuego M.

Despite intensity 7, a mild espresso with a slightly fruity taste. A surprise is the coffee bean in the lid of the packaging, which you can use to grow your own little coffee plant. - Kurt F.

Finally, with the "Sumatra" variety, you support the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme SOCP. And with "Robusto" you dare to try a coffee with a high Robusta content - for that extra caffeine kick. "Pacifico", your final stop, is a decaffeinated Arabica - from Peru, where Tropical Mountains also has its roots.REFILL / Refill bag for coffee capsulesREFILL (refilling) means for us the consistent way to ZERO WASTE (zero waste).

SUMATRA Espresso Lungo Organic Fair Trade Coffee Capsules
  • strength
  • acid
Once upon a time there was a forest man - or "orang utan" - in the northern highlands of Sumatra. He was also called the gardener of the rainforest, because wherever he moved, he broke rotten branches from the canopy. As more sunlight reached the forest floor, the seeds of the fruits eaten by the orangutan germinated and flourished along its path.Orang Utan CoffeeToday, the orangutan, so perfectly in tune with its habitat, is threatened with extinction. Merciless logging and devastating forest fires are destroying its habitat. Coffee farmers are also being robbed of their livelihoods in the tropical rainforests by the destruction of the tropical rainforests.We do not want to and will not accept this. That is why we donate 0.50 € per kilogramme of exported green coffee to the Sumatra Orang Utan Protection Program SOCP of the Swiss foundation PanEco - and another 0.50 € to the small coffee farmers in the region. This enables them to comply with nature conservation guidelines, to refrain from deforestation and from hunting and trading with legally protected animals and plant species.Tropical Mountains SUMATRA Espresso/Lungo coffee capsules: Single Origin CoffeeFor SUMATRA coffee, we only use green coffee from the Orang Utan Coffee Project in Indonesia. In this way, we support coffee farmers from our network or community by purchasing their gourmet coffee for the SUMATRA directly and without intermediaries.

CAPITANO Espresso Organic Fair Trade Coffee Capsules

A captain must have foresight and patience if he wants to hold his own on stormy seas. We believe that both are also important in the coffee business. After all, Tropical Mountains wants to create an island where only organic and fair-trade coffee in sustainable packaging has a right to exist. With CAPITANO, you are heading for a sweet and full-bodied Arabica-Robusta blend that rewards you with aromas of grapefruit, dark chocolate and roasted nuts. With a slight acidity and a long-lasting, pleasant finish. This makes the CAPITANO espresso perfect to enjoy neat, as a ristretto or as the base for a cappuccino.Tropical Mountains CAPITANO espresso coffee capsules: Community CoffeeWe use organic Arabica green coffees from Peru and Colombia for our CAPITANO espresso.
