Cabo Verde’s Arabica

Descrição

Cabo Verde Arabica coffee, grown on the volcanic islands of Cabo Verde off the west coast of Africa, is known for its distinctive and high-quality flavor. Cultivated in regions such as Fogo and Santo Antão, the coffee benefits from fertile volcanic soil and elevations between 800 to 1,600 meters, which enhance its unique characteristics.

The coffee features a rich aroma with floral and fruity notes. Its flavor profile is well-balanced, with bright acidity, a medium body, and a natural sweetness. The finish is smooth and lingering, often with a subtle nutty or spicy aftertaste.

Typically wet-processed to enhance clarity and brightness, Cabo Verde Arabica coffee is harvested from December to March. Many coffee farms on the islands practice sustainable and organic farming, ensuring high-quality and ethically produced coffee.

A medium roast is recommended to bring out the best qualities of Cabo Verde Arabica coffee, making it suitable for various brewing methods such as drip, pour-over, French press, and espresso. This coffee is highly regarded by both casual drinkers and connoisseurs for its rich and distinctive taste.
