FAIR. invites world-class bartenders to meet with the quinoa farmers

Check out the video of our 2012 trip

In 2014, the Experimental Cocktail Group will travel with us. 

The goal of this trip is to spend time with the quinoa farmers. We want our partners in the Western world (Paris, New York, London, etc...) to understand the stakes of the Fairtrade movement. Each time they sell a cocktail using Fairtrade certified ingredients, there is a tangible impact on the famers' living conditions.
