ABOUT THE GROWER:
Finca Kassandra, originally a cattle station, began growing coffee on 1990 with the intention of producing Estate Quality coffees. The climate, with an annual average temperature of 22ºC and good rainfall of 1400 ‒ 2000mm proved ideal. By 2003, the size of Finca Kassandra had increased enough to build its own dry mill and since then have been processing all their coffee on the estate. The Rivas family are also ecologically aware and have set aside 27 hectares of rainforest for local birds and wildlife to flourish. A huge tree planting programme has been underway across the plantation that will help not just the coffee but the birdlife as well.

Norfolk Island
Although Norfolk Island has a NSW postcode, and is part of Australia, the ecommerce platform our site operates on does not recognise the postcode 2899 as a NSW postcode. In order to bypass this misconception, we have added Norfolk Island as a Country/Region. When adding your shipping information at checkout, please note that the section titled Country/Region needs to be changed from Australia to Norfolk Island. We can express ship up to 2kg for $21.45. If the order is above 2kg the system will automatically increase the shipping fee to $30. Express Post can take anywhere between 14-30 days, sometimes longer. Regular post can take anywhere up to 6 weeks.
There are some items in our store that we will not be able to ship to Norfolk Island, items such as syrups, boxes of sugar and Natvia, etc. If these items are selected we will contact you and provide a full refund.
Larger Items
We have a large item handling fee of between $20 - $50 (depending on the size and weight of the item) mostly for coffee machines and grinders.
Delayed items
On the rare occasion our delivery partners may be experiencing some delays which may mean your order takes a little longer to reach you. In the event that a parcel has been delayed and the scans are no longer showing on the tracking, we will contact Australia Post / Startrack in an effort to resolve the issue, and if they advise that is has been lost we will either offer to resend the item (if it is still available) or provide a full refund.
