Origin
Coffee is connected to the farm and the authoritative farm boundary that existed when the event occurred.
HeritageIQ turns farm activity, harvests, processing, quality, custody and evidence into a verifiable history of coffee — connecting every lot back to its origin.
HeritageIQ connects what happened on the farm with what happened to the coffee afterwards. Instead of asking buyers to trust a marketing claim, we preserve the evidence needed to examine it.
Coffee is connected to the farm and the authoritative farm boundary that existed when the event occurred.
Operations, inputs, harvest observations and supporting evidence create the production history.
Processing follows exact coffee quantities, including outputs, by-products and losses.
A published Digital Coffee Passport assembles the trusted history into a human- and machine-readable record.
HeritageIQ preserves the links between agricultural activity, harvested coffee, processing transformations, quality, custody and the commercial lot presented to the buyer.
Identity, geography and the production context.
Inputs, field activity and supporting evidence.
Recorded coffee quantity and harvest observations.
Exact mass through each transformation.
Quality records and changes in possession.
A published record that can be independently examined.
Kinondo Farm in Embu, Kenya is the flagship HeritageIQ implementation. The farm is being used to build and prove the complete traceability workflow before HeritageIQ is expanded to other coffee producers.
The goal is practical: capture the agricultural reality, preserve the evidence, connect the coffee to that history and make the result useful to producers, buyers and auditors.
Nursery, field establishment, water, soil fertility, microbial inputs, harvest, processing and quality become one connected agricultural record.
HeritageIQ is designed to preserve evidence alongside the operational record so traceability is more than a chain of labels.
Versioned farm boundaries preserve the geography associated with historical events.
Receipts, usage records and field operations establish what happened before harvest.
Quality records remain connected to the coffee they describe without altering provenance.
Exact quantities document how coffee moves through transformations and into new lots.
Digital Passport publications preserve an immutable snapshot of the verified record.
A HeritageIQ Digital Coffee Passport is the public face of the provenance system — assembling origin, attributable mass, harvest, processing, quality, custody and supporting evidence into one published record.
