What the Brand Says
Sanctuary honors Counter Culture’s legacy of environmental stewardship and co-founder Fred Houk, an avid birder and environmentalist. The line first launched in 1997 to celebrate shade-grown coffees and their role in protecting biodiversity, and this limited-release blend continues that mission. It brings together coffees from shade-dense farms in Guatemala and India that honor the vital link between coffee and nature. With notes of praline, brown sugar, and apple, Sanctuary is as delicious as it is purposeful—a tribute to Fred’s vision. The bag design features the national birds of Guatemala and India, the Resplendent Quetzal and the Indian Peafowl, respectively.
