Farm Details
Lot#: 8 Alessandro Matos Martins - Fazenda Cabaço Do Tanque
Lot#: 8 Alessandro Matos Martins Lot#: 8 Alessandro Matos Martins Lot#: 8 Alessandro Matos Martins
Overview

The farm was acquired in 1986. It was Alessandro Matos Martins’ intention to begin planting Arabica coffee, taking advantage of the altitude of its lands - above 1,200 meters – and its mild climate – 15º C average.

Respecting the environment, coffee is grown sustainably, always looking for the best possible use of products that can leave chemical residues, and investing in forestation with native species.

Coffee processing system

Coffee is picked selectively and manually, and the beans are pulped naturally by the wet system. The beans are dried on a sunny cemented terrace.

Concern with quality

The owner receives technical assistance from the company Agripec, and is a member of the Cooperativa Agrícola dos Cafeicultores de Piatã [Coffee Growers Agriculture Cooperative of Piatã] - COOCAMP, and of the Associação dos Cafeicultores do Município de Piatã [Coffee Growers Association of the Municipality of Piatã] - ASCAMP.
