Description
Fazenda Paraiso has been owned by Guy Carvalho for over twenty years. The farm is located in the coffee-growing district of Cabo Verde, in a region that presents ideal conditions for coffee production.
With an average altitude of 950 meters and a climate with well defined seasons, low humidity and favourable temperatures. The farm has drying patios and produces both natural (dry-processed) and pulped natural coffee, using modern processing equipment including a washer and a pulper, and a mechanical mucilage remover that is used to produce pulped natural coffees during periods of excessive rain.
Coffee is harvested during the peak of the season and pulped to remove the outer layer of the fruit. After pulping the coffee is laid our try dry on concrete patios and turned regularly to ensure even drying.
