Starbucks introduces new Black Apron Exclusives™ coffee - Zambia Terranova Estate available at a Bristol Starbucks coffee house from 4th July.

Other wholebean coffees from Latin America, Africa & Arabia and Asia Pacific are available in stores throughout the year. The difference between these and Black Apron Exclusives™ is that while they are all made from the top 2% of Arabica beans, there is a more plentiful crop of the other wholebean coffees so production of them can be sustained.
For each selected Black Apron Exclusives™ coffee, Starbucks honours the farmer with an award of $15,000 to be used toward social projects that will help improve the lives of farmers in the community. Past awards have helped to positively impact local education, health, transportation, coffee-processing facilities and the environment.

In addition, much of the
