Producer: Piero Alberti Region: Cassia dos Coqueiros Elevation: 1000 masl Varietal: Yellow Catucai Process: Natural Notes: Milk chocolate, apricot, & panela About: ‘A real farmer understands that their farm is a unique living organism, of which they themselves are a part’. This is how producer Piero Alberti describes his relationship with his farm. His story begins with starting an organic farm in Tuscany, Italy, which he still has today. It was by fortune that he ended up buying Finca Terra Limpida in the region of Cassia dos Coqueiros, Brazil. Piero’s vision is to make or- ganic produce accessible to everyone and to empower his community. Apart from coffee he produces grain, wine, and cheese, all of which he sells locally. Piero’s operation is 100% certified organic and he utilises biodynamic principles. This coffee encapsulates what Proud Mary strives for through our café and coffee program.
