More infos :

Since 25 years, Antonio Rigo de Oliveira produces the Catuaí in this well adapted region. The farm is 70 hectares big and 30 are dedicated to coffee. Most of the workers are local people, pesticides are as low as possible and fertilization compost comes from the farm. The local forests are maintained by the farm, too.

The collect is done manually by women specialized in picking the perfectly ripe cherries, tiwice a day. Drying is done on patios, beans thickness doesn't exceed 4 cm and they are stirred up several times a day.

We are very lucky to have this coffee as there are only few bags available in the world !

In the cup :

Very balanced, with cocoa and chocolate aroma, very smooth and bold aftertaste.
