Whole bean, antonio, Brazil, Platypus

Step into the history of Brazilian specialty coffee with "Antonio." This exceptional lot is crafted by the artisan Platypus Torréfacteur, based in Nantes/Couëron. Named after Antonio Coli, who settled in the Mantiqueira de Minas region in the late 19th century, this coffee is now produced by the 4th generation, Álvaro Coli. The Sitio da Torre farm is a legendary name on RoasterCup, having won the prestigious Cup of Excellence 30 times.

Artisanal Precision Every bag of Antonio is freshly made to ensure the peak expression of its terroir. Álvaro Coli harvests the cherries by hand and dries them slowly on African beds or concrete patios. The result of this meticulous care is an 85.5 SCA score coffee, roasted specifically for espresso to reveal a perfect balance between gourmand notes and unexpected fruitiness.

Flavor Profile Expect a rich and comforting cup featuring notes of Dark Chocolate, Praline, and a surprising touch of Yellow Fruits. It is the ideal choice for those seeking a high-quality, specialty espresso that stands out from traditional Brazilian profiles.
