When you picture a coffee farmer, who do you have in mind? For many people, it will be Juan Valdez, the symbol of Colombia’s National Federation of Coffee Growers, with his thick moustache, sack of beans and trusty donkey.But women play a crucial role on coffee farms which often gets overlooked. This week, Jools is diving into the responsibilities they take on, some of the struggles they face and how we can hope to overcome them.She will speak to three women about their stories and experiences: Ana María Donneys and Paula De Rosenzweig, two women growing coffee themselves, as well as Blanca Castro at the International Women’s Coffee Alliance. Why is there a lack of representation at higher levels in the industry? How are traditional gender expectations holding women back? How might things change in the future?These are some of the questions we’ll be asking. So join Jools and James as they strap in and prepare to break the glass ceiling.

In Ethiopia, the birthplace of Arabica coffee, Ethiopians spend hours roasting and brewing coffee in their living rooms. But, have you ever heard of the Ethiopian coffee ceremony? If not, you are not alone. Get ready, dear listeners, because James is going to take you, Scott, and Jools out of your regular coffee routine to see how coffee can be drunk quite differently. First, we travel to Italy as James roasts coffee beans with his family’s long-time friend and family helper, a lovely Ethiopian woman named Elisa. Then, Jools and Scott get treated to a coffee trader at the Ethiopian Embassy with the ambassador and Jame’s friend Ethiopian coffee exporter Michael Haile. And, we also hear from an Ethiopian expat, Mekdes, who grew up with the ceremony at home and still practices it herself. Get ready, because your morning coffee might just get a little more savory! —Join our Patreon to support the show! https://bit.ly/3vrispx Enjoy the legendary experience of a Moccamaster Coffee Brewers: https://bit.ly/3ANRBqQRepair your Moccamaster in the UK with Bella Barista: http://bit.ly/3UFHCfSBecome your own barista with Rocket Espresso: https://bit.ly/3RiBXehWant to learn more about our wonderful guests?
