We have sourced coffee from Manassés a number of times since meeting him in 2016. The coffee produced on the farm speaks volumes about their dedication to quality and understanding of sustainable farm management. This nano lot of Obatã is processed anaerobically, located in a shaded cool area of woodland on his farm, ideal for temperature regulation

Keep your coffee sealed in the bag and store in a cool dry place away from sunlight. Use within 3 months.

With a label featuring a detail of John A. Park’s Snow Falls on Exmoor, 1939, the coffee is a great Christmas or holiday gift for coffee-loving friends and family.

About our producers

Sítio Três Barras has belonged to Manassés’ family for at least 70 years after his grandfather José acquired a small plot of land which he used to cultivate potatoes and peppers. The family had tried cultivating coffee in the 1950s but didn't achieve substantial years, so it wasn't until 2021 that Manassés’ father decided to try again and the farm has been producing coffee ever since.

In 2001 Manassés planted five thousand Yellow Icatu trees and five hundred Tupy trees to diversify the farm’s output. Through his dedication to agriculture, the farm became Fair Trade certified in 2012 and is continuing to produce some of the best coffee in the region.

The farm is currently part of a program to implement the concept of Regenerative Conservation Agriculture, whose agenda is in line with the global agenda to mitigate the effects of climate change. Even as a smallholding, the farm is aware of its social role in the local community, offering its partners and collaborators employment in suitable conditions with good pay and a good work environment. Manassés has 5 employees to help with the harvest each year and everything is picked by hand.
