About:

This is our third harvest working with Ana Cecilia, and we wanted to do something a little different this time around.
Grown on the farm managed by her brother, Lúcio Gondim, we were blown away by a fascinating variety called Arara.

A natural mutation, this dwarf variety has two unique attributes; it's naturally resistant to coffee leaf rust (a disease that attacks the leaves of coffee plants), as well as having a longer maturation time. This extended maturation leads to the fruit accumulating more compounds, so it’s more complex and exotic.

Roasting days: Proud Mary roast Monday-Friday during normal business hours. To ensure freshness of coffee, best to order early in the week as postal services and couriers do not operate on weekends.

Orders: placed by 8.00am PST will be roasted and dispatched the same day. If you are ordering on a Friday, and order after 8.00am then your coffee will be roasted the following business day - Monday.
