Rast Coffee Apas Organic Fairtrade 250g pack
CHF 8,50 250 g
Rast Coffee Apas, Brazil

Discover a piece of Brazilian coffee culture with Rast Apas coffee. This single origin from the south of Minas Gerais not only brings an aromatic experience to your cup, but also stands for fairness, transparency and sustainability. APAS unites the passion of 60 small producers who are fully committed to quality and fair trade. In the cup, Apas impresses with its complex interplay of flavours. You can expect an aroma of tart floral and nutty notes. Dark chocolate and liquorice unfold on the palate, giving the coffee depth and character. Its full body and natural processing give you a harmonious, long-lasting flavour experience. Rast Apas coffee is particularly versatile. As a café crème, its aromatic balance comes into its own, while as an espresso it delights with its intensity and fine flavour. It is less suitable for preparation in a filter, as the strong flavours are somewhat less pronounced in the balance. It unfolds its full potential with a portafilter machine or in a fully automatic machine. This coffee is backed by the Associaçao dos Produtores do Alto da Serra (APAS). This FAIR TRADE association, based in the district of Ferreiras in the south of Minas Gerais, emphasises quality, transparency and fair conditions. The altitude of 1,000 to 1,500 metres, the balanced climate and the fertile soils create ideal conditions for coffees with excellent SCA scores of over 80 points. Apas consists of the Catuai, Mundo Nuevo and Tupi varieties, which have been processed naturally. The harvest period is between July and September 2024. With certificates such as organic, Fairtrade and direct trade, this coffee shows that top quality and social responsibility go hand in hand. So you not only enjoy excellent flavour, but also support producers who do their work with passion and respect for people and nature.

Package of Otavio Brazilian Coffee by Drip Roasters
CHF 15,50 250 g
Drip Roasters Brasil Otavio

This coffee from Fazenda do Salto surprises with a unique flavour profile that elegantly combines typical Brazilian notes of cocoa and hazelnut with a delicate orange. Thanks to careful anaerobic fermentation, additional exotic fruit flavours unfold that will remind you of ripe guavas or papayas. Brazil Otavio delights with a wonderfully balanced flavour. A full-bodied cocoa flavour, complemented by nutty accents and refreshing orange, awaits you at the first sip. However, the real highlight is the fruity nuances of guava and papaya, which are particularly intense thanks to the special fermentation and provide a natural sweetness. A coffee that is complex and yet pleasantly accessible. To enjoy the full flavour of Brazil Otavio, we recommend the following preparation: use 19 grams of ground coffee for 42 grams of espresso. The optimum brewing time is around 28 seconds with a brew ratio of 1:2.2 to achieve a perfect balance between body, sweetness and fruity acidity - a moment of pleasure that is worth every sip. Brazil Otavio comes from Carmo da Cachoeira in the famous coffee-growing region of Sul de Minas in Brazil. At the Fazenda do Salto, run by Otávio Reis in the fifth generation, innovation, tradition and sustainability are very important. The farm produces its own electricity using solar energy, utilises water from natural sources that is carefully treated and uses a gentle mechanical drying process for the coffee. Biodiversity and environmental protection are top priorities - around 400 hectares are reserved as a nature reserve.For years, Otávio's coffees have regularly won prizes at prestigious competitions and continue to set standards in terms of quality and sustainability.

Demeter coffee versus organic coffee: what's behind it?

Organic coffee and Demeter coffee - two terms that often appear in connection with sustainable coffee enjoyment. But what is the difference? This much can be revealed: Demeter certification includes far stricter guidelines - from compliance with biodynamic production guidelines to a wide range of sustainability aspects.

Why is sustainability so important in coffee production in particular?

Sustainability is the key to ethical, environmentally friendly and future-proof coffee production. But that's not all: sustainable farming methods often lead to higher quality coffee beans with unique flavors, which benefits both producers and consumers. Sustainable practices reduce the use of chemicals, protect soils, preserve biodiversity and protect the climate.

How does organic coffee differ from conventional coffee?

Organic coffee is more than just a drink. It is a statement for environmental awareness, fair trade and pure enjoyment. In contrast to monoculture in conventional cultivation, organic farmers rely on mixed cultivation, which means that coffee plants are allowed to grow together with other plant species. Why is that? This promotes biodiversity and makes the plants more resistant to disease.

Monocultures, on the other hand, harbor serious ecological and economic risks. Focusing on the cultivation of a single plant species over large areas leads to greater susceptibility to diseases and pests and to rapid soil depletion

Coffee plants are very sensitive. Too much heat, but also too much cold, damages them. Moisture is good, but not too much. Coffee farmers like to plant avocado, grapefruit or banana trees, coconut palms or eucalyptus plants next to coffee plants. These mixed cultures ensure that coffee plants are protected from too much sunlight and heavy rainfall.

Organically grown - sustainably enjoyed Conventional coffee cultivation often relies on chemical fertilizers, which provide short-term growth but deplete the soil in the long term. Organic coffee farmers, on the other hand, rely on compost and organic fertilizers. The result? Fertile soils where coffee plants feel right at home.

Fair trade, fair wages Organic coffee stands for fairness not only towards nature, but also towards the coffee farmers. Fair trade practices guarantee fair wages, so that every sip of coffee also bears some social responsibility. Incidentally, unlike conventional coffee, organic farmers harvest their coffee cherries by hand. Industrial harvesting methods are not used.
