Specialty coffee is a concept that was born in the early 70s in America to describe a coffee that is hand-selected, free from imperfections and that respects natural and well-defined cultivation and roasting methods..
Only environmentally sustainable practices are used in cultivation.
Specialty coffee is a single-origin coffee, coming from single plantations and well-defined areas.
Coffee defined as specialty coffee must have complete traceability that allows knowing the producer, the cultivation area and the processing method.
