Timor Indonesia and food security programsThis earthy, smooth bodied and floral coffee is sourced from family owned farms organized around the Cooperativa Caf Timor (CCT), which has more than 20,000 members who live in the Ainaro, Ermera and Lequisa districts of East Timor. Coffee cultivation on East Timor was originally established over 400 years ago by Portuguese colonists but leaf rust destroyed all production until a new coffee varietal called Hbrido de Timor was introduced in the 1900s.
