Tiny Footprint Coffee

Tiny Footprint Coffee, the world’s first carbon negative coffee. Our team spent hands-on time with the Tiny Footprint Coffee to see how it holds up against the rest of the coffee beans we've tested.

Across repeated sessions we evaluated it on the categories that matter most: quality, consistency, value, and how likely we are to reach for it again. Ranked #17 of our top 200 coffee beans — an outstanding dark pick with chocolate, spice, bold notes, earning a 4.6★ average across 412 Amazon ratings.

Tiny Footprint Coffee, the world’s first carbon negative coffee. Through a unique collaboration between Roastery 7 and the Mindo Cloudforest Foundation, one an Artisan coffee roastery and the other a nonprofit conservation organization, the two teamed up to create the ultimate combination of good karma. So, how is our coffee carbon negative you might ask? It’s simple, really. It takes 4 lbs. of CO2 to produce and distribute 1 lb. of our coffee. For every pound that’s sold, we donate a portion of the proceeds to fund reforestation in Ecuador’s Mindo cloud forest.
