What is it good for? A super coffee if you enjoy a classic taste profile. Espresso is syrupy and sweet and filter is rich and balanced.
Additional Notes: This lot was soured from Andrea Ribeiro Silva's farm Fazenda Aragão from the the Cerrado Mineiro region as part of the Cafe Delas scheme. Every Café Delas coffee is sourced 100% from women farmers and for every sale, a portion of the profit is reinvested in programs that promote gender equality and empower women in the field and most importantly of course, the coffee is excellent!
"Our family has been in the coffee-growing industry for generations, passing from great-grandmother to great- grandson, all within coffee cultivation. In times of crisis, it is important to add value to our product, so we have sought to constantly adapt and improve, both in cultivation and in post-harvest process. Our priority is to produce quality coffee while always taking care of the environment and the well-being of our employees.
I started helping my father in the farm management after my mother’s death. I work in the administrative part of the property, in payments, purchases and all farm controls. Now I want to learn more about post-harvest activities and coffee preparation process to improve our management and turn our coffee even more special.”
