I'm not sure how the fact that baristas are generally uninformed about a general Starbucks policy should make me feel better about the fair trade issue -- But I know this: Starbucks publicizes the fact that it'll French press a fair trade coffee for anyone who asks -- making this a public guarantee. The mermaid makes no such guarantee for any of their other blends. That policy's just an internal goal for the other blends -- where as for the fair trade coffee, it's an unfulfilled corporate promise.

It isn't just a mandate for their Cafe Estima.
