FIELD NOTES NUM. 08 >> MONGOLIA / ALTAI
ALTAE
The Earth. Recorded.
We return to origin, listen, document, and publish what we can prove. Each drop is independently tested, traceable by lot, and tied to the people and place behind it.
RELEASE BY DATA >> NO RESULT, NO DROP
PUBLIC LOT COA
Lab results published by lot number
TRACEABILITY LEDGER

SYSTEM >> SOURCE → VERIFY → PUBLISH → DROP
HOW IT WORKS
SOURCE
Ethical sourcing through on the ground partners, with documented context and consent.
VERIFY
Independent lab testing per lot. Release only when results meet our published standard.
PUBLISH + DROP
Publish lot level COAs and traceability to a public ledger, then release a limited batch drop.
PROOF LAYER >> LOT LEVEL DISCLOSURE
TRANSPARENCY LEDGER
Every ALTAE drop has a public record: lot ID, origin notes, third party lab results, and traceability artifacts. If we cannot publish the proof, we do not release the batch.
