Specialty Coffee
What makes our coffees special
Specialty Coffee
All our coffees are considered specialty coffees that have achieved at least 80 (out of 100) points in Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) grading
Roasting Process
A separate roasting profile is developed for each coffee variety in order to emphasize the special characteristics of the coffee
Single Origin
Green coffees come from the family's own farm “Fazenda Santo Antônio” in Brazil (small quantities from neighboring farms)
Direct Trade
Specialty coffees come directly from the “Fazenda Santo Antônio” farm to Augsburg to be processed by hand on site
We produce Arabica specialty coffees from the varieties Arara, Catuaí Amarelo, Catuaí Vermelho, Mundo Novo, Obatã and Bourbon Amarelo.
Coffees with special sensory profiles are produced in microlots and hand-dried in “raised beds”.
The farm has a special laboratory for tasting and evaluating the coffees. The laboratory consists of a classification table, a sample roaster and various equipment and accessories for the correct evaluation of the respective samples.
As a coffee manufacturer, we have a Q(Quality) Arabica Grader in the family, certified by the Coffee Quality Institute (CQI) and the Brazil Specialty Coffee Association (BSCA).

Coffee Timeline
01
Planting
1st stage
It all starts with selecting the best cultivars that are planted in areas above 800 m in altitude. The spacing of the coffee trees in each plot is defined according to the topographical characteristics of the area to avoid self-shading or excessive insolation.
02
Coffee Cultivation
2nd stage
The cultural dealings follow the best practices recommended by specialists. Every year, soil samples are taken from all coffee plots and analyzed to define soil correction and nutrient replacement. Scrubbing, proper management of weeds, pests and diseases follows the model of sustainability and seeks to respect the environment.
03
Harvest
3rd stage
Harvesting is always planned in detail in order to obtain a high-quality coffee. It is done manually and carefully on the cloth.
04
Preparation
4th stage
After harvesting the coffee is washed and cleaned for the elimination of impurities and separation of the fruits with different densities for a uniform drying.
05
Drying
5th stage
Pre-drying is carried out in paved brick-areas and final drying is performed in mechanical dryers, preserving coffee quality. The specialty coffees are dried in “raised beds”.
06
Storage
