The Cooperativa Cafe Timor (CCT) works with
very small farms in East Timor. The majority of
land owners own less than a hectare of land. The CCT
was established in 1994 with the help of the USDA
and NCBA. and in 2001, the cooperative obtained
Fair Trade certification. The farms are located in
Maubesse, an area of high altitude and a sub-district in
the Ainaro district; Atsabe, in the Ermera district; the
Lequisa district; and the Aifu region. The coffee from
East Timor was originally planted over 400 years ago
by Portuguese colonists. However, after an epidemic
of coffee leaf rust, the replanting of plants occured and
led to the creation of a new coffee varietal of Hibrido
de Timor.
