Origin and Plantation
Kona Extra Fancy is the most premium Kona coffee from Hawaii. It is particularly special, because it is cultivated without the use of pesticides and dried in the sun. Only the ripest, deep red coffee cherries are picked. The Cornwell Farm, where this coffee is from, is located at an altitude of 1,500 m, in the middle of the so-called Kona Coffee Belt. Coffee has been grown here since the 1930s. Its particularly fertile soil, sunny mornings and cloudy, shady afternoons offer the perfect growing conditions for the coffee plants.

Character and Taste
This exceptional coffee with a medium body will enthuse you thanks to its fruity, berry-like acidity and a particularly long-lasting, chocolaty aftertaste. We recommend the use of a French Press for preparing this speciality. Thanks to its expressive, floral aroma, you will be swept away to a beach of this beautiful island!

PARTICULARITIES
Hawaii ... what a wonderful place. Luxury goods such as nuts, exotic fruits and coffee are grown here. Generally, Hawaiian coffees are very expensive, even those of poorer quality. Coffee from Hawaii is mild and can be either wonderful or also very dull in taste! It is a challenge to find coffees with exceptional flavour characteristics that justify their high price.

Origin and Plantation
The region around the Atherton Tablelands is mainly known for its Rodeo Shows and tobacco processing. In the early 20th century, a significant amount of high-quality coffee was also cultivated; economic change and climatic problems were the reason for its abandonment. It is only since the 70s that coffee is yet again cultivated here. Amongst others on the Skybury Plantation close to Mareeba in northern Queensland.

Character and Taste
A coffee for lovers! It is very light and mild in flavour and is characterized by a pleasant spiciness. The Skybury has a lower caffeine content compared to other coffees.

Plantation Info
This family-owned plantation is located at altitudes of 550 - 600 m above sea level. On the Skybury plantation, the coffee is not only cultivated and harvested, but also peeled, selected and packaged. Originally the variety Arabica Typica was the only one that was planted, but a change was made to the Arabica Bourbon, which is more resilient. The annual production of this plantation amounts to approximately 150 tons of green coffee thanks to highly ambitious cultivation methods, such as the automatic irrigation system, mechanical harvests, selection and drying processes.

Particularities

You can say that Australia has developed its own coffee culture over the past years. Strongly influenced by Italy, you will find that all possible combinations offered in the coffee bars are based on Espresso. Actually, one would think that coffee cultivation should have developed accordingly here as well. After first tentative steps in the 20^th century, it was, however, completely ceased due to unprofitability and poor quality, but was started again in the 70s. Today, you can find excellent coffees that are available in limited
amounts on the world market.

Origin and Plantation
This coffee comes from the mountainous region of Mantiqueira, located in the southern state of Minas in Brazil. Mantiqueira means “the region where the clouds are lying”. This location and the inherent climatic conditions are ideal for cultivating coffee. With an average temperature of 18 °C and an average annual rainfall of 1,850 mm per year this region is famous for its mineral springs. Right in the centre of this region the farm Santa Lucia can be found which produces highest quality coffees and was awarded with the national Cup of Excellence in 2009.

Character and Taste
An exceptional Brazilian coffee with an aromatic and delicate taste with slight hints of fruit acid and chocolate. Perfectly roasted - a true delight!

Particularities
Brazil is, without doubt, the largest producer of Arabica coffees in the world and is also among the largest Robusta producers. Its coffees are often offered in blends or as cheap Arabica varieties. We, however, consider Brazil from another point of view. We present finest plantation coffees, which offer a large array of unique flavour characteristics thanks to their specific origins and differing production methods.

Origin and Plantation
This very special coffee, also called "cat coffee", comes from the Island of Java in Indonesia. It consists of coffee beans, which were eaten and then excreted by a particular species of civets. "Kopi" is the Indonesian name for coffee and "Luwak" is the term for this weasel-like, nocturnal tree dweller, which feeds from the fruit pulp of the coffee cherries. The indigestible coffee beans, on the other hand, are naturally fermented by the enzymes of these animals, creating the popular dark and full flavour. And thus, these thoroughly cleansed and delicately roasted beans enthuse a growing fan base around the world.

Character and Taste
Due to its lower protein content, the Kopi Luwak is significantly less bitter than other coffee varieties. Its spicy, full flavour is syrup-like and offers delicate hints of dark chocolate flavours with some slight wooden notes. Its aftertaste impresses with a light acidity.

PLANTATION INFO
The plantations are situated in the Aceh Province on the island Sumatra. This is where the districts Bener Meriah and Takengon are located where a large mount of Arabica varieties are planted, mainly, though, the Ateng Super variety which is favoured due to its high yield per harvest and its resistance to fungal infestation. The cultivation areas are found at altitudes of 1,500 to 1,600 m above sea level and the maximum production capacity is 150 - 200 kg per month.

PARTICULARITIES
All Arabica coffees in Indonesia are picked by hand, whether they are from small farmers or grown on large plantations. Today, more than 90 % of the coffee is produced on farms with an average area of one hectare. The most unusual method of production in Indonesia is used to create the “Kopi Luwak”. Ripe coffee cherries are eaten by
civets. During the digestion the outer coats of the fruit are removed. The excreted coffee beans are collected, washed and dried.

Origin and Plantation
Only the coffee cultivated in Jamaica on an area of 6,000 hectares may be trademarked as “Blue Mountain”. The Blue Mountains have an average temperature of 20 to 23 °C, sufficient rainfall, as well as soft soil rich in humus due to the volcanic activity which originates there. These are almost ideal growing conditions for highland Arabica coffee. Due to the altitude of above 700 meters, the coffee plants grow considerably slower and need approximately 10 months instead of the usual 6 - 8 months for the beans to ripen. The unique raw coffee can be exported in the typical wooden barrels only after certification.

Character and Taste
Up to 90 % of the yearly production is exported to Japan, where it is not unusual to pay more than 10 dollars for a cup of this famous cult drink. It is common to offer Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee to Japanese coffee lovers as a gift on New Year’s Day. This coffee speciality is an absolute experience. It has a full, slightly sweet aroma, paired with a mild acidity and an intense, clear and nutty taste. And the low caffeine content - only 0.7 % - has really no comparison!

PARTICULARITIES
Jamaica – heavenly beaches, sun, rum, reggae and the world-famous Blue Mountain coffee. Coffee from Jamaica can be potentially wonderful, full and mild. Preconditions for this are a good harvest and processing as well as quick transportation. The latter being the most testing challenge for this famous coffee. Today, the immaculate Jamaica Blue Mountain from the eponymous mountain range reaches the highest prices worldwide.
