Börja dagen med Contra Café


Nu kan du dricka kaffe som odlats av fd frihetskämparna Nicaraguas Contras. Kaffet heter Contra Café.
Contra Café buys coffee from a cooperative called UCASUMAN (Unión de Cooperativas Agropecuarias de Servicios Unidas de Mancotal). All of the cooperative's members fought with the Fuerza Democr&aacutetica Nicaragüense - better known as the Contras - against the Sandinistas in the 1980s. Today, these former freedom fighters struggle to get by on the profits from their 1-2 acre coffee farms.
