Mirembe Kawomera "Delicious Peace" Coffee

Mirembe Kawomera means "Delicious Peace" in the Ugandan language Luganda. It is the name of a Ugandan cooperative of Abayudaya (Jewish), Muslim and Christian coffee farmers. The farmers are guaranteed a fair price for their coffee, thereby supporting the 558 farmers of the Peace Kawomera Cooperative and their families. The coffee is imported, roasted, and distributed by Thanksgiving Coffee Company, located in Fort Bragg, CA. $1 from the sale of every package is rebated back to the Cooperative, on top of paying Fair Trade prices to support their community-based projects.

The coffee is Certified Fair Trade through TransFair USA.

The coffee is certified Kosher (Igud Hakashrus of Los Angeles, Kehilla Kosher) and OCIA certified organic.

Coffee can be ordered directly from the website (www.mirembekawomera.com) for home use, as well as over the phone for wholesale orders (fundraisers, synagogues, bar/bat mitzvah projects, gifts, etc).    

Mail Order: (800) 648-6491
