Luciana and her husband run a small coffee farm in Mantiquiera de Minas. They and their family work in the field. This coffee is a great example of specialty Brazilian coffee and the efforts behind quality driven cups.

Luciana is also a part of the Educare Coffee project. The pilot program began with 14 women from this Minas Gerais region. It’s A program to empower producers through education, by providing financial literacy, data collection analysis of their crop, sensory education to share taste knowledge that we experience at origin - many farmers globally rarely even try the cup of coffee they produce!
