Schnibbe Kaffee Brasilien – Fazenda da Lagoa, 500 g

Manufacturer product description

Fazenda da Lagoa prides itself on growing one of the best Brazilian coffees. This coffee is characterized by very good digestibility and soft aroma. This nutty-soft Arabica from the farm'Fazenda Lagoa' is one of Brazil's outstanding speciality coffees. The farm is located in the heart of the state of Minas Gerais, amidst hills, many small lakes and fertile farmland. The cultivation area'Sul de Minas' is one of the best in the country. The coffee plants imported from French Guiana in 1720 thrive in the village of Santo Antônio do Amparo at an altitude of between 950 and 1200 metres on soil rich in minerals. This high cultivation position and the climate in Brazil result in a slightly lower caffeine content and a low acidity. The coffee is therefore mild and has an incomparably rich aroma. Connoisseurs are fascinated by its light caramel note and the long aftertaste. A strict and continuous quality control during the ripening period, harvest and preparation as well as the careful selection of the beans result in a small but exquisite harvest quantity, which is reserved only for the best coffee roasters. The beans are unwashed and sun-dried. The world-famous Lagenkaffee is a coveted rarity. In the Cup of Exellence, an international coffee competition, the farm `Fazenda Lagoa` regularly occupies top positions. The dedicated owner of the farm, Marcelo Vireira, is not only known as a quality-conscious coffee farmer. He also takes care of the local ecosystem and bears social responsibility towards his employees and pickers. He provides apartments and houses, has built a school for the children and supports other educational projects in the region. Another special feature of the Fazenda Lagoa: The farm is surrounded by a protected rainforest.
