_____________________________
As the first coffee-exporting farm in the Amazon, this estate stands out for its investment in the world's most advanced post-harvest technology for specialty Robusta. A pioneer in the region, it has hosted internationally renowned events, including the first cupping sessions for professional tasters, the first meeting with international buyers in the Amazon, and the region's inaugural coffee farm expedition.
Founded by four brothers and a friend, the farm has opened its doors to local producers, supporting them in coffee preparation and the exportation of their lots.
With a harvest focused on cherries at their peak ripeness (approximately 90% "purple-cherry"), the coffee undergoes an immediate washing process, followed by rigorous drying and controlled resting periods. This method ensures both physically and sensorially homogeneous lots, guaranteeing a high and consistent quality standard.
