Origin
A perfect cup of coffee results from a job that involves many processes and begins where the coffee beans are grown: on the farm. Sanches Specialty Coffee knows the entire coffee production chain and believes that work in the fields and post-harvest steps are essential and defines obtaining a high quality beverage. Therefore, partners that provide the fruits for our roasted coffees are selected and all meet requirements that include proper management, technologies used, farm management, social and environmental responsibility, as well as traceability and certification.
In addition, our coffees are all originated in volcanic soil of Pocos de Caldas region, south of Minas Gerais, which also has climate and ideal altitudes for the specialty coffee cultivation.
