El Lago Coffee Co & Caye Coffee to usher in new age of Eco-Sailing

The Sailing Vessel RedCloud has been converted to carry cargo. SCV
RedCloud will be departing Houston mid to late November to pick up her
first load of Caye Coffee coffee cargo from the Caye Coffee Ltd
located in San Pedro Town, Ambergris Caye, Belize.

The press is invited to come and tour the Cutter Ketch Sailing Cargo
Vessel RedCloud and the EL Lago Coffee Co.’s facility located at 4141
NASA Road 1 EL Lago Texas Friday November 16 and sample Caye Coffee's
coffee.

Please RSVP or call 281-532-0248

With fair winds and favorable seas SCV RedCloud hopes to return in
time to list the Caye Coffee cargo on e-bay just before Christmas.

The ELLago Coffee Company, in association with Caye Coffee will be
importing the Caye Coffee coffee (10,000 LBS per trip) in an eco-
friendly sustainable way to the USA aboard the sailing vessel
RedCloud. This will be, according to William Ukers all about coffee,
the first time since the Braque Padang arrived in NYC Christmas day
1914 that coffee has been imported to the USA via sailing vessel.

It's the dawn of the new age of Eco-Sailing.

After sampling many, many coffee's from all over the Central America
and the Caribbean, the El Lago coffee Co. selected the Ambergris
Caye’s Caye Coffee Ltd. Coffee products to import for several
reasons. The main reason it is the BEST TASTING and FRESHEST coffee
that we sampled. Paul Claus, Roast-master and owner of Caye Coffee
Ltd, has perfected to a fine art, four different roast combos, from
his award-winning , organically grown, sun-dried and hand sorted
coffee beans, beans that are grown 5000 ft above sea level in
neighboring Guatemala.


Ambergris Caye is the perfect size port to promote environmental
awareness and preservation, and is located in a great central
collecting area reducing overland travel from the coffee plantations.
The harbor of San Pedro is in-accessible to any large ships due to her
shallow coral- laden harbor, and pristine barrier reefs.

The ElLago Coffee co. will be the only importer to the USA of
Belizean coffee.

With the high prices of oil affecting everyone on earth, and the fact,
coffee is the second largest traded commodity on earth after oil, the
goal of the El Lago Coffee company ™ and Caye Coffee Ltd is to be a
model of sustainability and profit, using 100% renewable energy
resources for others to follow.

By Eco-Sailing Caye Coffee Ltd’s organic, sun dried and hand sorted
coffee will hope to provide the public the cleanest and GREENEST
products in today's Green, Organic concise and aware world.

Our mission will be to deliver high quality, high demand, organic
coffee products shipped in a manner that fosters brand loyalty from
our customers and promotes environmental awareness and preservation.

ElLago Coffee Company, SCV RedCloud and Caye Coffee are currently
seeking donations of school supplies of pencils and paper, spiral
notebooks, computer equipment, new and used musical instruments or
anything else that could help the school children of San Pedro. We
have an empty ship heading south and will ship these items free. The
schools are very small over crowded and in need of any supplies.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the press and citizens
of Houston and of the USA for their generosity and hope everyone has a
chance to taste Caye Coffee coffee!
