About Bunafide Coffee
At Bunafide, we believe that good coffee starts with honesty. We make quality coffee with attention to people and origin, and are building a more transparent coffee chain, step by step. No empty claims, but visible progress.
We work with roasteries that carry certifications such as Rainforest Alliance and Fairtrade. The more people choose Bunafide, the better we can improve our chain and get closer to direct purchasing from farmers in Ethiopia and Kenya.
Our mission is simple: pure coffee, pure conscience. By being open about origin, costs, and choices, we show that every cup counts. Bunafide is on its way to a coffee world that is right with taste, with people, and with the planet.
Our journey towards fair coffee
Transparency doesn't happen overnight. We're working in phases towards a completely honest and transparent coffee chain. Every step brings us closer to direct collaboration with farmers and a fair price for everyone in the chain.
Phase 1: Awareness and foundation
We source from Dutch roasteries that work with certifications such as Rainforest Alliance, Fairtrade, and Organic. This phase is about raising awareness: we highlight the problem while guaranteeing high-quality coffee.
Phase 2: Beginning of direct sourcing
We start building our own relationships with farmers. The more people choose Bunafide, the more we can invest in this step. This lays the groundwork for true transparency and direct trade.
Phase 3: Direct purchasing
We now purchase directly from farmers in Ethiopia and Kenya. The chain becomes shorter, and price distribution is fairer. The consumer pays a little more but knows exactly where that difference goes. This is the step where we truly make an impact visible.
Phase 4: Making the process more sustainable
Once the direct chain is established, we focus on sustainability. From packaging materials to local projects with the farmer. We invest in better working conditions, nature conservation, and sustainable growth.
Phase 5: Long-term change
In the long term, we want to support multiple farmers and strengthen local communities. Not only through fair trade but also by investing in the future of the villages and the surrounding nature.
On the road together
Every cup of Bunafide coffee is a step towards a fairer coffee world. By purchasing from us, you directly contribute to a chain that is becoming more transparent, just, and sustainable.
With your purchase, you help us:
-
Shorten the supply chain. We are working step-by-step towards direct purchasing from farmers, so there are fewer intermediaries and more value remains at the source.
-
Fairly reward farmers. By making conscious choices about purchasing and pricing, we ensure that the people who grow the beans truly benefit.
-
Increase transparency. We openly share what we know, where we stand, and what we still want to improve. In this way, you help build a transparent coffee supply chain.
-
Stimulate sustainable growth. The more people choose Bunafide, the more we can invest in making processes, materials, and local projects more sustainable.
So you're not just buying coffee, but also progress. Small steps that together make a big difference for farmers, for nature, and for everyone who loves coffee that makes sense.

Composition and origin
Hyper Charge is a blend of 100% Arabica coffee beans, composed of five origins: Ethiopia, Peru, Brazil, Guatemala, and Honduras. This combination of origins was deliberately chosen to balance multiple flavor characteristics, rather than focusing on the taste of one region as is the case with single-origin coffee.
Taste profile and roast
These medium roast coffee beans deliver a layered profile of floral and flowery notes, caramel and spiciness, with a slightly nutty finish. The medium roast keeps the floral aspect of the bean intact, while the blend still has enough body to be considered a strong coffee.
For which coffee moment is Hyper Charge suitable?
Hyper Charge is designed to perform under pressure: powerful enough for a concentrated espresso, and balanced enough to also open up as a lungo. With a coffee intensity of 4 out of 5, this bean also has a powerful, full-bodied flavour.
