ARA-BUSTA BLEND
Introducing, Hope Espresso’s take on the Arabica/Robusta Blend.
Imagine smooth, chocolatey notes with delicious cloves and roasted hazelnuts.
This isn’t a pungent and bitter robusta blend you are used to, and guess what? It’s a light-medium roast!
We have worked hard to pair perfectly a Brazillian Coffee from Sao Lucas farm with a robusta from the DR Congo to give this mellow blend. It’s great as a black filter coffee, delicious and balanced as an espresso and smooth with milk.
Definitely worth a try. Take our word for it ;)

CONGOLESE ROBUSTA :
This AtSource + lot comes from Mr. Olive Mudekereza, a Congolese farmer and entrepreneur who is one of the largest single producers of robusta and arabica coffee in the South Kivu region.
There is origin traceability to farmer group with information across nine sustainability topics covering over 100 metrics. We use granular metrics and footprinting for the supply chain and there are ongoing insights supporting more effective and efficient interventions via continuous improvement plans.
Despite the social instability that has been present for decades in eastern Congo, the Ruzizi plain is an area with strong economic potential. It shelters the borders of three countries of the Great Lakes Region: the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Rwanda and Burundi. It is located between Lake Kivu in the North and Lake Tanganyika in the South. These two lakes are connected by the Ruzizi river, which offers a good water resource for agricultural activities and for feeding.

Fazenda Sao Lucas coffee farm is farmed by the sixth generation of coffee growers. Lucas Lancha de Oliveira opted to follow in his parents’ footsteps studying agriculture and becoming an agronomist. This experience proved of great value to the family business. Lucas also served in the Brazilian armed forces.
In many ways Sao Lucas is a unique Coffee Farm. Lucas brought the dynamism of his military service and combined that with the knowledge gained from his studies which contributed greatly towards the unique chocolate, cocoa and milky qualities in his coffee, making it remarkable and distinct. On the Sao Lucas farm the coffee varietals grown are Mundo Novo, To enhance the quality of the coffee Lucas’s knowledge was fundamental in the creation of home – made fertilizers.
