Brazilian Arara

Café Blá

Paula & Fabrizio Santini are the third generation working on Fabrizio’s family farm. On their 4.5ha farm they focus on growing high quality coffees, including this Arara varietal. Hailed “the Brazilian Gesha” by Costa Rican farmer Roberto Matta, Arara is fruitier and has more complexity than many of the other Brazilian varieties. Arara is a newer variety from Brazil that’s prized for its high-scoring cup profile combined with resilience and productivity. The variety is a cross between Yellow Catuai and Obatã, which is itself a Timor hybrid.
