The story – the farm
Danilo Natural – This dairy-like coffee features a surprising flavour combination: bold mango notes, combined with sweet sugarcane and slightly tangy gooseberry make way for more sophisticated, soft flavours, such as white grape, cocoa nibs and plum.

Jaguara – Jaguara goes a little off the nut-flavoured beaten track with praline notes. Once you’re all warm and cozy from those chocolate-y notes, it hits you with an acidic, orange-flavoured right hook. Getting knocked out has never felt this good!
