Authentic & certified coffee
From our first steps, we wanted to offer the Greek public espresso of exceptional quality. We were looking for authentic, certified coffee, through a market without intermediaries, directly from the farm.
And – believe us – we had to try thousands of cups to reach the Ipanema farm for our final selection.
The Ipanema Espresso farm
At an altitude of 850 to 1,350 meters and in areas exceeding 6,000 hectares, are home to the 12 million coffee trees that each year produce more than 7,000 tons of 100% Arabica coffee, a coffee famous for its undeniable superiority of taste and aroma, low content in caffeine, the particularly demanding growing conditions and consequently, its significantly higher market price compared to other types of coffee.
