Carmo de Minas, Brazil

AMA Geisha | Akoya

CHAMOMILE - JASMINE - ORANGE

“AMA Geisha is an innovative project that aims to redefine Brazil’s place in the world of specialty coffee.
With a focus on quality, innovation and experimentation, AMA proves that Brazil can create coffees of exceptional complexity, vibrancy and elegance.”

The Ama Project gives us the opportunity to experience Geisha coffees grown with great care in Brazil. The initiative is a collaboration between world champion barista Sacha Sestic and long-time CarmoCoffees specialty coffee producer Luiz Paolo. Together, they are exploring how the flavour profile of the Geisha variety evolves in different Brazilian terroirs, with the idea of making this exceptional coffee more accessible to more people and showing that Brazil has something truly special to offer.

The name “Ama” is inspired by Japanese divers who dive to collect pearls from the ocean. Most of them are women, and the Ama Project logo symbolizes them – pearl seekers in their natural habitat. Just as they find jewels underwater, we seek out the finest flavours hidden in the terroir.”

The project consists of five “pearls” – we offer you Akoya – the white pearl that represents the terroir in its purest form.

Ama Estate

Ama Estate project history shared by CarmoCoffees:

“For 2,000 years, women from coastal Japanese villages have dived into the near-frozen waters of the Pacific Ocean in search of oysters that produce pearls. They were very young, some still girls, and developed the amazing ability to hold their breath for a few minutes. They would surface for just a few seconds, then dive again – up to 60 times in one session.

Inspired by the demand of these women, we bring you the rarest and most precious coffee beans from our farm – a unique result of the dedication and pride of the people who grow them. This is the producer’s love: coffee that cannot be called ordinary anywhere in the world.

Ama Estate Farm grows the geisha and Sudan rume varieties. Both varieties produce less fruit per plant and require a long ripening period. Due to the low yield, the coffee is always hand-picked at Ama Estate Farm. Each bean is handled with the utmost care at every stage of the process, resulting in an exceptionally pronounced flavour profile
