Origin and PlantationThis coffee, produced exclusively by women, is the key to the goal of the Women’s Project: improving the quality of life of its members. The “Flores del Café” helps them to acquire a legal title to property of their land. This legal right is a precondition for being able to receive credits and loans for economic purposes. Usually, landownership is passed on from the fathers to their sons. If women also own land, the income and quality of life of the families is increased. This is supported and encouraged by Flores del Café.Character and TasteA light acidity, totally without any tanginess, is characteristic for this Arabica. The aromas of nuts and a delicate note of cherries are perfectly rounded off by a creamy, smooth aftertaste and will put you into heaven.
ParticularitiesNicaraguan coffees offer a large range of flavour characteristics. Some can be compared to Mexican coffees from Oaxaca, some have more acidity. Others, such as the coffee specialities from the Nueva-Segovia area, are slightly lemony and light. Traditional botanical varieties are used: Typica, Bourbon and Maragogype dominate alongside Caturra and Pacas. Maragogype coffee is particularly notable due to its constant high quality.
Origin and PlantationOur coffee rarity comes from the farm Gauribesi which is approximately 75 hectares large and located in the region Nuwakot, roughly 75 km to the north of the capital Kathmandu. The farm lies at almost 1,000 m altitude and is surrounded by the snow-covered mountain range named "Ganesh Himal" and insight of the meltwater-fed river Trisuli offering an exceptionally panoramic view. The reforestation of former rice fields provides the coffee shrubs with shade and offers refuge for the local wildlife.Character and TasteThe coffee is processed using the pure, crystal-clear glacial water from the Himalaya mountains. The taste with slight hints of limes, plums and some currants is bull-bodied and well-balanced. Pure indulgence.PARTICULARITIESThe Himalaya Mountain Range is the tallest mountain range of the world. Ten out of the fourteen mountains worldwide which are taller than 8,000 metres belong to the Himalaya. Amongst them, the Mount Everest, which is the tallest mountain on Earth with its 8,848 m. The coffee from this region is as unique as the region itself - our Mount Everest coffee from Nepal - an absolute rarity.
Origin and PlantationThis coffee grows in the Jinotega region at an altitude of 1,500 m on volcanic spoil and is harvested on small Fincas. Coffee experts know that Nicaragua offers top quality coffees. In the mountainous regions, only the ripe coffee beans are harvested by hand in up to eight picking sessions. This is necessary because not all the berries ripen at the same time; on the contrary, on a single branch you may find flowers, green berries and ripe red berries.Character and TasteOn our quest for the superlative coffee quality, we came across these outstanding Nicaragua Maragogype beans. The fascinatingly even and large beans dictated our choice of the Nicaragua Maragogype over the Mexican giant bean. The infusion fears no comparison to the Mexican Maragogype. The spicy and almost creamy Nicaraguan coffee is mainly sold to Japanese and American coffee lovers.ParticularitiesNicaraguan coffees offer a large range of flavour characteristics.

Origin and PlantationIn the highlands of Panama, in the western province of Chiriqui, lies the quiet and beautiful city of Boquete with a population of approximately 14,000. This region is called “Valley of the Flowers and the Everlasting Spring”. On small plantations, close to the border to Costa Rica, Arabica beans are cultivated under ideal external conditions. Due to constant northerly winds, the coffee plants grow especially well and slowly at an altitude of about 1,500 m. Panama makes up only about 0.2 % of the world coffee production, but it belongs to the top of the producers of premium coffee.Character and TasteThanks to its complex and aromatic character, this coffee belongs to the top of the range for gourmets. The medium-light body is in harmony with the well-balanced acidity in taste. Due to the medium roasting, slightly floral, soft chocolaty nuances are developed, which ensure a long-lasting aftertaste. You absolutely need to try this coffee without milk and sugar! Let yourself be surprised and enthused by this small plantation!ParticularitiesGenerally, the best coffees come from Boquete and Volcán in the Chiriquí District. These unique coffees are produced on small family-run farms. They employ Ngobe Indios throughout the harvest season. Unfortunately, Panama has changed significantly over the last few years, particularly with respect to coffee cultivation. Foreign investors have taken over more and more of the coffee production which makes it much more difficult to find delicate coffees with a real character in Panama.
Origin and PlantationSigri A has a vague similarity to the Blue Mountain Coffee from Jamaica and was planted in the highlands of Papua New Guinea in the late 1930s. The majority of PNG coffee is grown on small farms with only 20 - 600 coffee plants, making the quality control more difficult. The Sigri Farm has a plantation size of 122 hectares and is one of the first farms that established a controlled, high quality production process.Character and TasteThis well-balanced coffee is characterized by a chocolaty flavour and a delicate spiciness. Its aftertaste is pleasantly sweet, and its intensive flavour is in perfect harmony with the fine acidity. Each sip of this coffee is pure indulgence.PLANTATION-INFOFounded in 1950, this farm is located in the Waghi Valley, which offers the perfect climate for coffee cultivation. Only the finest Arabica varieties such as Arusha and Typica are cultivated on the Sigri plantation. These plants produce a finer bean than other Arabica in Papua New Guinea. The beans already undergo a quality audit when being picked by hand, as they are carefully chosen according to homogeneity. The selected cherries are already cut on the day of the harvest, fermented and then washed in a process taking three days. Followed by drying in the sun, a careful hulling and sorting by hand.PARTICULARITIESSuccessful cultivation of coffee only started in the 1930s in Papua New Guinea when beans were smuggled to the country from Jamaica. Nowadays, however, the coffee sector is one of the most important of the country. Mainly Arabica is cultivated on plantations run by smallholders and family-run businesses. The coffee is picked by hand and dried in the sun. Its taste is comparable to that of the Jamaica Blue Mountain. Unusual notes of smoke, leaves and moss are in harmony with a natural sweetness.
