  „Long awaited by many Fairtrade supporters, it is one in a selection of new organic and specialist coffees from Cafédirect which doubles their product range. Fresh 'Mountain Special' ground coffees include Kilimanjaro, grown at an altitude of 1,800 feet on the slopes of the Tanzanian mountain by one of Africa's oldest co-operatives, and Machu Picchu, cultivated organically by small farmers in the Peruvian Andes. A new organic ground coffee is available as well, also bearing the Soil Association's seal of approval. The products were launched as a result of the company's confidence in the gathering momentum of the Fairtrade market, and are available in most major supermarkets.“
