Specialty coffees is grown in harmony with nature. 🌸🐝 Bees play a fundamental role in our plantations. Their natural pollination helps improve the quality and productivity of the coffee beans, contributing to a richer and more sustainable harvest. Caring for the soil, flora, and fauna around the coffee fields is part of our commitment to the environment and to our customers. Although Arabica coffee is self-pollinating, studies show that the presence of bees and other pollinators can increase productivity and even enhance bean quality. The result? More uniform, mature fruits with an even richer flavor profile. Encouraging biodiversity isn’t just a sustainable practice; it's an extra layer of care we put into every stage of cultivation to bring high-quality coffee to the world. 🌍☕ 🇧🇷 O café especial é cultivado em harmonia com a natureza. 🌸🐝 As abelhas tem papel fundamental nas plantações.

Cuidar do solo, da flora e da fauna ao redor dos cafezais é parte do compromisso que temos com o meio ambiente e com nossos clientes.

Incentivar a biodiversidade não é só uma prática sustentável; é um cuidado a mais que colocamos em cada etapa do cultivo para oferecer cafés de alta qualidade ao mundo. 🌍☕
