A world of flavours to discover

Brazil

Leading coffee producer

Brazil is the world’s largest coffee producer. It produces about 35 % of the world’s coffee, approximately 55 million bags per season. This volume represents more than a third of the world’s annual production. It grows arabica and robusta.

Brazilian coffees are usually the basis of most blends, as they provide intensity and special chocolatey nuances when blended with other origins. These characteristics make Brazilian coffee one of the best in the world.

At Café Silvestre we work with the Brasil Bourbon arabica coffee variety, which stands out for its homogeneity, delicacy, light acidity and chocolate notes.

Ethiopia

The origin of Arabica coffee

Ethiopia is considered the birthplace of Arabica coffee. It produces between 200 and 250,000 tonnes per year. Its coffees are known for being aromatic and very special for their sensory notes.

Our coffee is grown in the southeast of Ethiopia, in the Sidamo region, at an altitude of over 1,800 metres, which gives it the best qualities of flavour, aroma and texture. Harvesting is done twice a year, always by hand, selecting only the ripe beans at their optimum stage of development.

Ethiopian coffee has chocolatey flavours, citrus notes -such as strawberry and lemon- and dried fruits -such as almond and chocolate-. They are coffees with a medium-high acidity and a good body that provide a creamy and velvety cup that leaves no one indifferent.

Guatemala

Coffee rich in minerals

Guatemalan coffee is characterised by its high quality. Guatemala is full of volcanoes and mountains, which translates into mineral-rich soil and high altitudes, all of which are very beneficial for the beans to develop the aromatic nuances that characterise them. Arabica and robusta are harvested.

Guatemalan farms and farmers are supported and protected by ANACAFÉ, which regulates coffee practices and provides the necessary tools for better control of the bean, which is harvested by hand.

This coffee is full-bodied and intense, with medium acidity and notes of lime, chocolate, cane sugar and flowers.

India

Where coffee grows in the shade

India is the only country that produces all of its coffee under shade, which has a unique taste and aroma. It is grown in regions all over the country, but the best beans come from southern India, from states such as Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Both arabica and robusta varieties are available.

Our Indian coffee is robust and full-bodied. Its exotic taste is slightly sweet, with a hint of spice.

Perú

The most sustainable coffee

Perú se centra en la producción de arábica. En el entorno natural de Los Andes se producen más de 4 millones de sacos de café cada año.

Peru focuses on arabica production. More than 4 million bags of coffee are produced every year in the natural environment of the Andes.

The main objectives of Peruvian farmers are to ensure coffee production and differentiate their product on the market, and they achieve this through sustainable practices. For years, they have been committed to quality organic coffee production and have created the figure of the organic production inspector, who works to ensure compliance with the standards and requirements of this type of agriculture in the coffee sector.

Our organic coffee comes from the heart of the Andes. It is organic and is selectively harvested by hand. It has a sublime intensity, with a medium-high acidity, notes of lime and a base of chocolate, caramel, nuts and flowers. It is a very peculiar coffee that, despite being Arabica, surprises us with its intensity and creaminess.

Our organic coffees include Tunki, which has won several awards as the World’s Best Speciality Coffee.

Colombia

Arabica coffee benchmark

Colombian coffee is world renowned for its excellent quality and flavour. It is grown in the mountains of the coffee-growing region, and its climatic conditions allow it to be harvested during all months of the year. Colombian coffee is characterised by an intense aroma, with balanced acidity and fruity notes. Cultivated in fertile soils and at altitudes between 1,200 and 1,800 metres, it is ideal for the cultivation of Arabica coffee, which predominates in the country.

Colombia exports a large part of its production and has become one of the world’s main coffee suppliers. This coffee is not only a national symbol, but also a sensory experience appreciated worldwide.
