„The portion of proceeds from Fonte's Sumatra coffee will go directly to the American Red Cross International Response Fund that provides immediate relief and long-term support through much-needed supplies and volunteers. Odom plans to rally other roasters through the Specialty Coffee Association of America, which has over 2,500 company members including Fonte, and hopes to encourage them to make a financial donation to the fund which will help those in Sumatra and the other countries hit by the tsunami.“

„31 /PRNewswire/ -- Just days after the tragedy, millions of Americans rallied to pledge their financial support -- over $18 million to the American Red Cross alone -- to help victims of the devastating tsunami that crushed the coasts of Southeast Asia and Eastern Africa. Sumatra, whose primary export is coffee, was one of the countries hit the hardest. Fonte Coffee Roaster, a small independent coffee roaster in Seattle, hopes to continue the donation efforts and rally the rest of the coffee community by joining coffee powerhouse Starbucks' efforts to support the tsunami relief. To that end, Fonte will donate $2 for each pound of Sumatra coffee purchased through the website at www.fontecoffee.com or by calling 1-88-FONTE until further notice.“

„In some American cafes, a drink made with about half American-roast, filter coffee, and about half hot milk and froth, usually served in a 12- or 16-ounce glass or bowl. The proportion of coffee to milk has to be larger than with the espresso-based caffe latte, because American filter coffee is so delicate in flavor and light in body compared to espresso.“

„Sumatran coffees are some of the heaviest, smoothest, and most complex coffees in the world. Most of the coffees from Sumatra are dry-processed, but some are semi-washed. The majority of the coffee is marked Mandheling or Lintong and is grown inland from the southern coast. Coffee grown farther west is usually marked Gayo Mountain and is described as a sweet and clean.“
