Questions people ask.

What makes Cachoeira da Grama distinctive?

Four generations of the Dias family have farmed this valley since the eighteen-nineties. The hills shade the trees for part of the day, the cherries ripen slowly, and the farm's Bourbon lots have earned Cup of Excellence awards along the way.

Who runs the farm today?

Gabriel Dias, great-grandson of the man who bought the land, grows and sells these coffees directly to roasteries — the lots on this page reached Europe through that direct route.

How high does this coffee grow?

Satellite mapping measures roughly 1,010 m at the farm's mapped point, on the high ground of the Vale da Grama near São Sebastião da Grama. Coffee plots often sit higher up a property than its gate, so treat the roaster's own listing as the guide for any specific lot.

Where can I buy its coffees in Europe?

Right now 1 roasters in 1 countries list coffees from this farm — each card above links to the roaster's own shop.

Where does Daily Roast get this information?

From the roasters' own listings, the farm's public materials, and Europe's Copernicus Earth-observation programme. We only publish what we can check — and we say so when something is an estimate.
