Thanks to the medium roast, the carefully selected raw coffee beans can express themselves to their fullest, releasing all their natural aromas without ever being overly bitter. Try it without sugar, it's incredible!
The coffee is stored inside a sealed bag, self-protected with a one-way valve, which allows the coffee to degas, preventing oxygen from entering, which would otherwise oxidize it. This keeps the coffee beans fresh and aromatic even after several months.

History of coffee
Today we travel to two countries with our Armonia blend: Brazil and Tanzania.
You've already tasted single-origin coffees, now try them as a blend and discover how they enhance each other, creating a unique and complex flavor.
Brazil
Let's start with Brazil, the world's leading producer and seller of coffee, and one of the most popular and widely consumed coffees!
Brazil boasts a multitude of coffee farms, both sprawling, industrially farmed coffee farms that produce low-quality coffee, and micro-farms specializing in specialty coffee. In short, the coffee-growing region is vast and diverse.
The two departments known for producing quality coffee are the Cerrado region, where our Bom Chocolate comes from, and the Minas Gerais region to the southeast of the former.
The Cerrado region obtained the IP (Indication of Provenance) label in 2005 and the DO (Protected Designation of Origin) label in 2014. As mentioned, this region is characterized by the quality of its raw beans and its unique climatic conditions. Furthermore, the coffee plants have intense flowering, with uniform ripening of a concentrated crop, combined with perfectly defined climatic seasons, with hot, humid summers and mild, dry winters.
A set of perfectly synchronized variables that create unique and ideal conditions for our beloved plant with bright red fruits.
Authentic Cerrado Mineiro coffee has intense aromas, a caramel flavor and hints of dried fruit, with a delicate citrus acidity and a predominantly chocolatey flavor that is very persistent.
I imagine Brazil as vast, made up of hills and plateaus between 900 and 1600 meters above sea level. Greenery and fields as far as the eye can see, with a clear sky contrasting with the land.

Africa
To then land in Africa, the cradle of human civilization, birthplace of the coffee plant, the only land that seems to tell us the beginning of every story.
The single-origin natural robusta comes from Tanzania and is a Superior, from the Bukoba region, grown above 800 metres above sea level.
Tanzania is a country I'm very fond of and have had the pleasure of visiting both along the coast and inland. Among giraffes, lions, and other savannah animals, it reveals some of the wonders of the world, rich in contrasting colors: the red earth, the savannah with its green trees, and a clear blue sky.
People also always have colorful clothes and a beautiful smile on their faces.
The coffee-growing area of Kagera and Bukoba, in the north-east of the country on the shores of Lake Victoria, is home to mainly natural Robusta beans with an intense aroma and a chocolatey flavour.
So, with a taste of our Armonia you will find yourself first in South America, in Brazil, with sweet notes of chocolate and a scent that makes you feel like you are in the middle of endless cocoa bean plantations.
The aftertaste, on the other hand, takes you to Africa, with robust and intense notes of bitter cocoa, which characterize the selected coffees, combined with a consistent body.
