Origin and Plantation
The Dominican Republic was one of the first colonies that received coffee seeds from Martinique at the beginning of the 18th century. In the last decades the Republic suffered from crises, revolutions and poverty. The country has been recovering slowly from all the trouble and the economy has only recently started to recover. Apart from tourism, the export of coffee is a very important economic factor for the country. Only a few people know about the high quality coffee, which ripens under ideal growing conditions on many small farms. Our coffee comes from the northwest of the island, the best cultivation region of the country, the so-called “Barahona”. The raw coffees are washed and dried in the sun.

Character and Taste
In Japan, people love blending this coffee with the famous “Jamaica Blue Mountain”. This became an insider tip in the USA a long time ago, since it promises an ideal combination of acidity, body and aroma. The coffee gets its extraordinarily intense sweetness due to the careful processing. This coffee is a fine, exotic speciality in our assortment that prepares you pleasantly for your next Caribbean vacation.

PARTICULARITIES
Due to its geographical location, one would assume that coffee from the Dominican Republic is rather mild and smooth, like other island coffees. But its flavour is more similar to the clean, washed coffees from Central America, with a light acidity and a full body. Nevertheless, you must choose carefully. Our aim is careful processing and quick transport to Germany.
