„All are also certified organically grown, because the Fair-Trade movement has so far piggy-backed on the pioneering work already done by the organic coffee movement in identifying and providing incentive for cooperatives of peasant growers. It may be good to keep in mind that both Fair-Trade and organically grown coffees are examples of a much larger phenomenon called partnership or relationship coffees - coffees that reflect a direct, ongoing partnering relationship between the company that roasts and sells the coffee and the people who grow it.“

„On a final note, if you are looking for ways to reduce your caffeine intake without giving up coffee or sacrificing taste, there are a couple creative alternatives to decaffeinated coffee. Besides simply drinking less regular coffee, experiment with blending regular coffees naturally low in caffeine with a decaffeinated coffee to create your own favorite low-caffeine coffee. Try mixing one part of a distinctive, full-bodied regular arabica coffee such as Kenya, Yemen Mocha, Sumatra, or Guatemala with two parts of a mild decaffeinated coffee such as Costa Rican or Colombian. The resulting blend will have 80 to 85% less caffeine per cup than popular grocery store coffees and taste like a true specialty coffee.“

„The fair-trade strategy instead tries to raise the consciousness of consumers through publicizing both the problem and the fair-trade solution, while appealing to peoples' tendency to want to feel good about what they consume. The long term goal, I assume, would be to capture the public imagination to the point that it would be difficult to sell a coffee, at least a specialty coffee, without the Fair-Trade Certified seal, just as it is difficult today to sell a can of tuna without the Dolphin Safe seal. As for quality, fair-traders argue that, if growers are paid more, they at least will have a bit more freedom to consider issues of quality, a freedom which they don't enjoy under present market arrangements.“
