Manhattan - Gisele Almeida - Brazil

From a young age, Gisele Almeida was helping maintain his family’s farm in Mata de Minas. After getting married in 2004, Gisele and her brother-in-law planted over 12,00 coffee trees. This earned them enough money to purchase a piece of land where Gisele would go on to plant 8,000 trees which provide her family’s livelihood today.

Gisele is currently taking courses with the goal of improving the handling and quality of her coffees. In doing so, she seeks to continue to build a better life for her family by giving more opportunities to her children while delivering a higher-quality product that respects nature.

This lot from Gisele is Catimor grown at 600masl and undergoes a natural process. This year we are tasting pineapple, custard apple and yellow jelly with juicy mouthfeel!
