Origin and Plantation
Our “São Bento” comes from the Southeast Brazilian state Minas Gerais, from a plantation close to the City of Carmo de Paranaiba. The flavour-intensive Arabica varietal Yellow Catuai is cultivated there at altitudes of 1,100 m above sea level. After a first, rough sorting, the cherries are selected according to ripeness in a water tank, before part of the fruit pulp is removed and the beans are put out in the sun with the remaining fruit pulp to dry. During this drying process, which takes about two days, the coffee beans collect the sweetness from the fruit pulp and, hence, receive their incomparable flavour.

Character and Taste
This coffee has a very expressive character. Its well-balanced aroma reminds of chocolate and caramel, which even intensifies as the coffee cools down. Its sweet and nutty smoothness as well as the long-lasting aftertaste will enthuse any coffee lover. Thanks to this unique flavour, international coffee experts judged this coffee on Cup of Excellence level.

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
The Brazil Capim by Ismael José de Andrade is grown at an altitude of 1,150 m in the well-known highlands of Brazil, the Cerrado Plateau. This sun-kissed Yellow Catuai ripens to a brightly yellow fruit with a very intensive, sweet taste. As this coffee is dried in the sun, the fruit pulp remains on the coffee bean and its honey-like sweetness can penetrate the bean. This unique sweetness is clearly present in the cup later on.

Character and Taste
This coffee is fruity and sweetish, tastes slightly nutty and subtle notes of dark chocolate can be detected in the aftertaste. The Capim Branco of Ismael Andrade was awarded several times with the Cup of Excellence by the Brazil Specialty Coffee Association (BSCA)

Origin and Plantation
Discover this speciality from Brazil: a 100 % ripe coffee, hand-sorted and unwashed. The coffee beans of this variety ripen later in the season, because they are located on the side of the plant that only receives the morning sun. After the harvest, the coffee is sorted by hand, which has a unique impact on its quality on the one hand, and also secures many jobs. After the drying, the beans are stored for at least three months and are then peeled just before shipping.

Character and Taste
The flavour clearly represents the absolute ripeness of the handpicked coffee cherries. The well-balanced flavour yields a smooth body to the cup, which is wonderfully rounded off by aromas of caramel, chocolate and nuts. This encompassing experience forms part of every cup and underlines the unique quality of this excellent coffee.

Origin and Plantation
Umuco W’ikawa is a region in South-western Burundi. The name means “light of the coffee”. Coffee is like a guide for the farmers of this region, giving them a purpose and showing them a way forward. The coffee farmers of this region were able to improve the quality of their coffee and could build up stronger links to their customers thanks to their cooperation and the establishment of own production facilities. Additionally, they are supported by the Burundi government to make coffee a solid source of income in the entire country.

Character and Taste
A distinct sharpness, together with a sweet and fruity note as well as a delicate acidity, which reminds of pineapple, grapefruit and tangerines make up this coffee’s typical character. An exotic delicacy that you should not miss out on!

Particularities
Burundi is one of the poorest countries of the world. Due to the lack of financial means for purchasing pesticides, the cultivation of coffee is mainly organic. The highland spread through Burundi offers an excellent, tropical climate. Here, coffee cultivation takes place at altitudes of approximately 1,200 - 2,000 m. Coffee from Burundi has an intensive taste, which can be described as very spicy. The flavour is often berry-like and its notes can range from citrusy and floral to chocolate-like.
