About the Producer
We’ve purchased from Carlos and his family for three years, and much has changed in that time. Carlos is a 3rd generation producer, working on the family farm with his father when he was young. In 2021 they began to prepare micro-lots for the first time, and the washed Parainema we tasted on the table was outstanding.
Carlos has made the tough decision to emigrate to the United States to continue funding the family’s coffee production, but hopes to save enough money to return to work full-time on the farm.
With a juicy, sparkling acidity and a smooth round body, this coffee can grace a single option or be a complex espresso.
