Live Q&A: Starbucks on Fairtrade

Kate B., departmental coffee master,  Starbucks Support Centre

Some of the coffee growers we work with from Fairtrade coffee farms across the globe are coming to our office in London tomorrow to tell us all about their relationship with Fairtrade, and how this has made a difference to their lives. There’s a live webcast happening on The Guardian website from 3.00-4.00pm; you can even upload your questions for the coffee farmers to answer.

I went to a training session today that will help me make an even better cup of coffee. It really made me think about all the effort our baristas put into giving each drink the care and attention it deserves. When I think about the same care that the farmers take to produce the best quality coffee for us to make these great drinks, I’m blown away. I feel really proud and can’t wait to meet them tomorrow.

    Love the coffee, use the place regularly…but please change the horrible Jazz tape that creates cacophony..Yes its styled to coffee houses but try something a little more chilled/ambient than the 5/4 beat improvised that was blasting out at the Weymouth house this weekend
