Daterra

As Daterra approaches its 50^th anniversary, its reputation as one of the world’s most influential coffee producers is incontestable. A fertile breeding ground for innovative farming practices and the high-quality, high-volume coffees they can produce, Daterra is home to a team of expert engineers with backgrounds in the automotive industry.

These engineers have a track record of developing new technologies that deliver significant steps forward in coffee processing, primarily in quality control and controlled fermentation. And, not just focused on high-volume lots, the Masterpieces by Daterra collection showcases Daterra’s highest-scoring microlots that are processed by an in-house research and development laboratory.

Low caffeine varieties

This lot is a blend of two coffee varieties with considerably reduced levels of caffeine – Aramosa and Laurina. A hybrid of two different species - Arabica and Racemosa – Aramosa is prized for its subtle florality, notes of milk chocolate and around half the level of caffeine of Arabica.

Laurina, a naturally evolving hybrid of the Arabica variety Bourbon, is inherently very sweet and typically offers vibrant fruit flavours. With 25-50% of the caffeine content of regular Arabica beans, Laurina is extremely popular with coffee drinkers who are limiting their intake of caffeine.

Daterra has become synonymous with high-quality, low-caffeine coffees and this example is truly delicious. It’s smooth, medium-bodied and full of the classic milk chocolate flavours Brazilian coffee is treasured for.
