A great cause and a great coffee ????????????
Flavorful blend that is light and delicate. Not the strongest bean but very clean
This blend is on every order I place as it is my favourite on the Coffee Real menu. Rich and chocolatey it works when I make lattes or Cortados!
Once this is dialled in correctly, this is a great coffee - really mellow and smooth with no bitterness at all but still lots of flavour.
A yummy coffee. Quite complex brew not at all bitter and with a nice rich aftertaste - one of the nicest cups I’ve had in a long while. The fact that it’s for a great cause is a bonus. I’ll absolutely be buying more.
A nice blend great flavour but a little light for a morning coffee.
This is a really tasty espresso, with the deep chocolate notes I like. It also seems to be a bit lighter on caffeine than most – at least, I seem to be able to enjoy it more often without it ruining my sleep.

Additional Information
All of the profit from this blend goes to the San Pancho Turtle Fund
While hunting for new coffees we generally stumble across conservation based projects and while in Mexico this year (2016/17) we stumbled across a conservation project called San Pancho Turtle which is working to increase the number of the Olive Ridley sea turtles in the wild.
What got us interested in supporting this conservation project is the fact that it is very small, non-commercial, totally run by volunteers and is struggling for funds.
It was started 25 years ago when a guy called Frank Smith, a retired forest ranger from California, first came to San Pancho. He found that turtle meat was being sold / eaten locally, their flippers were being used to make cowboy boots and handbags and the turtle nests dug up and the eggs sold as delicacy.
Frank decided to move to San Pancho to help what he calls “the most passive creatures in the world and formed Grupo Ecológico de la Costa Verde (San Pancho Turtle) – which is the conservation group he founded to help protect the turtles and their eggs.
From June to November (nesting season), Frank and his volunteers spend all night on the beach safeguarding the turtles as they lay their eggs, and between August and March, Frank and his volunteers can often be found on the beach in a homemade dune buggy, releasing baby turtle hatchlings into the Pacific.
Upon release most will not survive – those that do, return to the same beach from which they were released 11-16 years later.
Is this conservation project working?
In 1991 there were just 90 revisiting turtles – today that number is over 450.
You can now play a part in this conservation project by buying this coffee and with this increase in funds San Pancho Turtle can budget for and carry out the important work needed during the non-laying and laying season.
