New Maker Alert: Alma Coffee

We are excited to announce we are featuring a new maker/new product at Georgia Crafted: Alma Coffee, located in Canton, GA.

Founded in 2018 by Leticia and Harry Hutchins, Alma Coffee was born from a passion for revolutionizing the coffee industry through Direct Trade. Their mission is simple yet impactful: to make ethically sourced, farm-to-cup coffee accessible to everyone while shining a light on the positive change Direct Trade brings to coffee farmers worldwide.

Alma’s roots run deep—five generations deep, to be exact. Leticia is a fifth-generation coffee farmer who grew up immersed in the coffee culture of Honduras. Her father, Al Lopez, co-founder of Alma Coffee, was born and raised on coffee farms in Copán, Honduras. Despite immigrating to the United States, Al kept the family’s coffee legacy alive, ensuring Leticia stayed connected to her heritage through annual visits to the farms.

Leticia and Harry’s journey together began in high school when they met at just 16 years old. After graduating college and working in their dream jobs as consultants at Big 4 accounting firms, they felt a calling to create something more meaningful. Frequent trips to Honduras, alongside Al, deepened their understanding of the transformative power of Direct Trade. Inspired by the opportunity to make a difference, they decided to carry on the family coffee tradition—and Alma Coffee was born.

Today, Alma Coffee brings premium, sustainably grown coffee to your cup, with a story as rich as its flavors. We’re proud to feature this incredible maker and share their mission with our Georgia Crafted community!
