To meetGertrude et Celso Augusto

A few words about Gertrude et Celso Augusto

Gertrude is a producer with a mission and a fighting spirit. She defends specialty coffee and the specific characteristics of her Boa Vista coffees with passion. She and her husband, Celso, are aware of the importance and impact of processes in the cup. Since 2006, they have paid particular attention to how cherries are sorted (using state-of-the-art electro-optics) and de-pulp them immediately after harvesting to preserve their freshness. They have discovered that their coffee offers a unique profile and have fought for it in many a competition. They won the Sao Paulo contest two years running. In the third year, their coffee entered the Brazilian top 50 in the Cup of Excellence. Gertrude and Celso met Marcos Croce of the FAF in 2007, who has helped them to promote their coffees on the international scene, first in the US and then in other countries.
