There are a lot of claims in coffee marketing, so let’s clear things up. All reputable specialty coffee, including ours, is vegan, lactose-free, non-GMO, and free of mycotoxins.  Throughout the specialty coffee supply chain, green coffee is rigorously tested for mycotoxins and other contaminants, and this has been standard practice for decades. Mold (a Category 1 defect) would disqualify a coffee from being specialty grade. At Heyday, we review mycotoxin tests before purchasing coffee lots and regularly perform spot tests on individual bags before roasting.
