FLAVOR &
VARIETY
Our Robusta coffee, also known as conilon, finds the ideal combination for cultivation in the hot and humid climate of the Amazon.
With shaded cultivation and integrated with trees and other species, our Café Apuí Agroflorestal results in larger and sweeter fruits when compared to other coffees of the Robusta species, therefore being quite tasty on the palate, with balanced acidity and body.
