Rinaldo bought Fazenda Furnas in 2003 and after the 2019 harvest he travelled to Costa Rica to learn first-hand from the farmers there about water treatment and drying efficiencies in processing. This lot has been processed using the pulped natural method during which the cherry skin and fruit are removed, and the sticky parchment-covered beans are left to dry naturally. The final stage is the removal of the dried parchment before the coffee is graded, bagged, and shipped to the UK. 

Fazenda Furnas

We source and roast coffee from single farms, estates and cooperatives. When we taste a coffee that we like, we want to know where it comes from and who grows, picks and processes it. We travel extensively throughout the year, visiting the producers and cooperatives with whom we currently work and looking for interesting varietals of coffee and new farms from which to buy. During these visits we talk to farmers and cooperative members, learning more about the coffee they grow and process and the challenges that they face. We then look to establish a relationship with the grower and exporter of that coffee. We believe that where such a relationship exists, quality, quantity and price requirements can be discussed in an open and equal way. We see this as sustainable, fair and equal trade.
