Sweet notes of chocolate and nuts from the world's largest coffee producing country - all at the touch of a button.

This coffee is grown and processed in Minas Gerais, Brazil, at Jose Maria de Oliveira's farm, Fazenda Serrinha. This specific lot comes from a project on the farm called 'Para Ela' (For Her) that aims to financially empower and support women. Prepared in compostable capsules, this natural processed Catuai lot has tasting notes of bakers chocolate and Brazil nuts. 

These fully compostable capsules are compatible with most conventional capsules machines (including Nespresso), with each box containing 10 capsules. All that's left to do is extract, and enjoy.

'PARA ELA' PROJECT 

This coffee was harvested as part of a project on the farm called 'Para Ela', or 'For Her' in Portuguese, that aims to financially empower women.

The vast majority of coffee grown in Brazil is mechanically harvested, meaning the coffee cherries are picked from the trees by machines. However, several areas of the Oliveria family's farms have shade-providing trees within the rows of coffee trees, which prevents machines from reaching the trees.

The Oliverias employ a team of women to pick and sort the coffees from these trees, who receive a 50% higher wage than the region average and challenging the gender pay gap. To learn more about this project, click here.
