Origin and Plantation
Yunnan is a region in the mountains of South-western China. Coffee is grown on the slopes with a prevailing mild climate. Yunnan is the largest coffee production area of China and makes up more than 95% of Chinas entire coffee harvest. The farm producing our unique China Fengmi Dragon coffee is also located here. The cultivation is organic and the young coffee plants are fertilized, for example by coffee skins.

Character and Taste
This accomplished coffee is characterized by an elegant, well-balanced body. Its flavour is incomparably aromatic and sweet and reminds of honey and hazelnuts. Let yourself be enthused by this unique coffee!

Particularities
The production and the consumption of coffee in China has grown at double-digit rates over the last couple of years and a slow-down is not in sight. It is estimated that China produces more coffee than Kenya and Tanzania combined. Coffee is mainly grown in the province of Yunnan, which is traditionally a tea growing region and the home of the famous and renown Pu-Erh tea.

Origin and Plantation
Our “Colombia Supremo” is cultivated and harvested in the growing region of “Huila” where it can freely grow in isolated, shady plantations far away from any foreign influence. The careful nurturing of the coffee cherries and the use of fresh, pure mountain water guarantee an absolute gourmet quality. “Ceiba” is the name of a tree that grows in the “Huila” region, a member of the sub-family of the woollen tree plants (Bombacoideae). These trees with large, palm-shaped leaves provide the necessary shade for the coffee plants.

Character and Taste
Our “Colombia Supremo” has a very impressive and fruity aroma. The combination of fine acidity and body, which is typical for Colombia, makes it an ideally balanced, gentle coffee. Our genuine “Colombia Supremo" inspires every coffee lover.

Also available as decaffeinated coffee

Colombia Swiss Water
item 13394/13392

The decaffeinated Colombia also impresses with a very expressive aroma and a full-flavoured body.

Particularities
For many years, Colombian coffees were marketed by the Federación Nacional de Café FNC as the quality standard in large consumer countries such as the USA. Coffee for the masses without any real quality control was delivered to supermarkets for a bargain. Our coffee however, comes from small plantations, which are family-run and located in the southern regions of Colombia, such as Huila. When carefully producing these highly desired Arabica varieties the focus lies on quality.

Origin and Plantation
Caffeine is a natural substance that is present in many different plants, especially in coffee. But if you want to avoid caffeine, there is no reason to miss out on coffee as well. Decaffeinated coffee was developed for exactly those people who may not consume caffeine or who want to avoid its invigorating effect. Many chemical processes were developed to decaffeinate coffee, all of which we strictly reject. Our decaffeinated coffee follows exclusively the natural "Swiss Water Process". During this process, no chemicals are used, only pure water. This conserves the original character of the coffee with its full flavour and aroma.

Character and Taste
Anyone who believes decaffeinated coffee to be dull and tasteless will be positively surprised. This coffee impresses with its expressive aroma as well as voluptuous taste and must not fear the comparison with its non-decaffeinated role model.

Origin and Plantation
The Kachalu plantations are located in the middle of the South American rainforest, in the heart of Colombia, and profit year-round from the humid and warm climate. Compared to Brazil, Colombia has the special advantage that you need not fear any bouts of cold, which could destroy an entire harvest.

Character and Taste
Considered that this coffee is from South America, it has a surprisingly strong, almost spicy-earthy character. The intensive sweetness of complex aromas from caramel to chocolate is rounded off by a sweet hint of fruits.

Plantation Info
In 1999, 14 coffee farmers started to collaborate by founding a cooperation to produce sustainable and eco-friendly coffee. Their goal: to maintain the habitat of the animals and avoid a contamination of the lo cal water reserves. Their cooperation was called “Kachalu”, a word that they themselves interpreted as “Hope”. Their hope was and still is today that their Kachalu will continue being demanded even in a worldwide coffee crisis.

Origin and Plantation
The COOPADE COOP is located in the mountains of Kyondo by the Virunga National Park and Lake Eduard. It is composed of 2,127 small farmers, 40 % (850) of which are women. Agronomists, experts for rural development, lawyers, accountants and computer scientists support the organisation. Their mission is plain: fighting unemployment and poverty, as well as supporting a lasting peace in the Region of Kivu and the surrounding areas.

Character and Taste
Kivu 3 offers a creamy body with a clear, fruity acidity, which is underlined by delicate notes of lemon and hints of chocolate and nuts in the aftertaste.

Particularities
Many different coffee varieties are cultivated here. Robusta is the prevealing plant, cultivated mainly in the Northeast of the country in the regions of Isiro and the lowlands of Ubangi, Uele and Kasai. High quality Arabica comes from the highlands of Kivu and Ituri. The ratio of Robusta to Arabica is approximately 5:1 considering the harvest amounts.
