THE HISTORY

We have inherited a tract from the “Conte Nero of Bellagio”, that considers the origins of the culture of coffee in Italy in the 16^th century when a famous merchant of Venice called Cesare Duni started to study coffee, out of curiosity about its healing properties.

And it is thanks to his passion for purchasing coffee and his friendship with a merchant of the Yemen

that he began his travelling to Africa and Center America.

SHORT HINTS ABOUT THE BLENDS

The Industrial Development has changed the coffee cropping and transport technologies. For that, some changes on the original blend, that we inherited from the tract, have been made.

The bases of the blends, commonly used, for the Arabic are: Santos, Costa Rica, Jamaica and India. And the bases for the Robusta are : Central Africa, Brazil and Indonesia.

90% of the roaster in Italy make the blends with different percentages of the bases; about our blends, the real distinction is the use of the bases from Uganda, although in small quantities, Arabica and Robusta, that other roasters don’t use.

The wise use of these bases makes a coffee with a groovy flavor, with an elegant density and a extraordinary stability.

SHORT HINTS ABOUT THE ORIGINS

In this case, the advanced technologies have changed coffee cropping. 50% of cropping is mechanized. This makes the coffee cropping system swifter but, in our opinion, deteriorates the quality and the result.

So we purchase the bases only with a traditional method cropping, this being more expensive than the mechanized coffee cropping, but, for our experience, guarantees quality, result and stability, also for the use of sieves 17/18 ( micrometry of each single grain of coffee).

The choices of the bases are of “ zero grade”( zero percent of flaws). The bases, with a humidity percent superior to 60%, are discarded.

The bases of Arabica are: Santos, Mugiana and Costa Rica Superior.

The bases of Robusta are: Uganda Superior, India Cherry AA, Vietnam Polish and Costa d’Avorio Top Selection.
