Coffee painting is not a new art form by any means, but has recently been increasing in popularity. Not only is it appealing to the eye and smells great, it is a great medium for any artist who is looking to try new things.The art of painting with coffee is known as arfé, which is a combination of the words "art" and "café". Coffee artist from all around are being featured in galleries and on TV, making appearances on shows like Martha stewart, and even sponsored by big names like Nescafe.
Paintings by these artists go for hundreds of dollars and are the focus of a lot of international attention. Though there are many people who encounter coffee painting and think that it is nice but dismiss it as a passing fad, painting with coffee is more than just a novelty, to many people it is a genuine art form.
So if you are intrigued by this branch of coffee culture and are aching to give it a try, it is simple and easy to do at home. Coffee paint is created simply by adding coffee (usually instant) to water and varying the strength to get different tones. Some even boil the coffee to get the darkest colors possible. From that point all you need is a bit of talent and some watercolor paper to create your own aromatic works of art.

That’s why all of our products are certified Organic, Biodynamic and Fair Trade.
Organics – Sustainable Nutrition

Biodynamics – Sustainable Agriculture
Organic and Biodynamic complement each other; what distinguishes Biodynamic agriculture is the additional emphasis placed on sustainability and the holistic approach of managing the farm as a self-sufficient, living organism.
Fair Trade – Sustainable Economics
The local communities of farm workers are the backbone of the healthy, vibrant environment needed to grow the world’s purest products. Fair trade is a market-based approach to ending global poverty and promoting the sustainable development of farming communities.
