the best functional coffee on the planet starts with the best coffee on earth.

The coffee beans in our botanical blends are grown by indigenous Maya Indian farmers in the Highlands of Chiapas, Mexico as well as various other family-owned, smallholder farms of half-acre lots throughout South America and are purchased through co-ops like SOPPEXCCA, AMUCC, and others who support Direct Trade programs so these farmers can be paid a premium for their crops while continuing sustainable and regenerative organic farming practices…

…which sounds cool and all, but really, it’s just a fancy way of saying that every time you take a sip of our coffee, you’re helping good people do good things.

So while you may think you’re just buying good coffee, in truth, you’re also:

funding interest-free revolving credit lines to help farmers meet short-term cash flow needs & upgrade farm equipment
supporting organic, sustainable, regenerative, and biodynamic farming practices and programs
building schools and educational programs so that children in farming communities can get an education rather than spending their days working as unpaid labor on family farms in order to help make ends meet
helping to improve economic diversity & sustainability in coffee-growing communities by teaching skills that create alternative streams of revenue such as beekeeping, farmer's markets, & backyard gardens
developing sustainable food programs to keep families and children in farming communities well-fed and nurtured year-round, especially through "los meses flacos"..."the thin months"
empowering women-owned organic farms to become profitable enterprises in countries experiencing social, cultural, & political upheavals
protecting the cultivation of coffee in lush mountainous jungles & nature reserves that are refuges for wild animals & plants
supporting the preservation of indigenous knowledge, as well as the conservation of natural resources and mutually beneficial relationships between native plants and crops.

And that's just a small taste of what it means to buy our beans.

We strive for every single ingredient in every one of our products to be - at a bare minimum - organically grown and Fair Trade Certified. Additionally, all of our medicinal mushrooms are 100% organically grown fruiting body extracts ONLY...no cheap, inferior grown-on-grain mycelium, or fillers - ever. If you don't know why that matters, read this.

In short, we understand that the strength of the supply chain is only as healthy as its weakest link - which is why Astro Botanico is committed to sourcing all of our ingredients, product packaging, shipping materials, and labeling with exceptionally high standards in order to benefit the health of the farmers, their families, & the communities they live in, as well as the health of the plant, the health of the planet, & ultimately, the health of you.

There are plenty of other functional coffee companies out there, but we’re confident that none of them can come close to our commitment to excellence, taste, functionality, and sustainability.

Howdy, Dude is our take on “Haldi Doodh” - aka “Turmeric Milk”/Golden Milk - an old Ayurvedic remedy that utilizes the myriad of health-building benefits of turmeric and other spices.
We’ve given it an additional brain/body boost by including the fruiting body extracts of Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps mushrooms.
Mix this golden powder with your favorite heated milk and sweetener (we love raw milk or coconut milk and a splash of raw honey), to create a delicious golden elixir that’s a great caffeine-free way to greet the morning sun.
