About this coffee<\/h3>\n

High in the mountains on the border of S\u00e3o Paulo and Minas Gerais, the Serra do Ciganos<\/strong> community cultivates coffee with a shared commitment to quality and sustainability. In 2008, they partnered with FAF Coffees<\/strong> to shift away from commodity coffee and focus on producing high-quality, traceable lots.<\/p>\n

A community wet mill<\/strong> was built with support from Jo\u00e3o Hamilton dos Santos to process coffees for the Bob-o-Link<\/strong> project. With improved post-harvest techniques and the use of African beds, they have significantly enhanced cup quality.<\/p>\n

This lot is classified HNV 2<\/strong> (High Nature Value), part of FAF\u2019s sustainability index. At this level, farms eliminate the use of agrochemicals, relying instead on natural biological solutions using beneficial fungi and bacteria.<\/p>\n

Situated between the Atlantic rainforest and the Cerrado savannah, the region enjoys abundant sunshine, enhancing plant photosynthesis. In the cup, expect a smooth body, gentle sweetness, a lingering finish, and flavours reminiscent of cereals and roasted nuts.<\/p>\n

A clean, collaborative coffee that speaks to regeneration and respect for the land.<\/strong><\/p>\n
