Green Lion Coffee Coffee Beans Brazil Alisios FCCO - 250g

Brazil Mogiana coffee: a committed Arabica from a distinctive terroir

Originating in the province of São Paulo, Brazil, Alisios Brazil coffee beans are grown in the Mogiana region, one of the country's historic coffee-growing areas, by the Serra do Ciganos cooperative.

The region owes its name to the Companhia Mogiana de Estradas de Ferro, a railway company that built the famous ‘coffee railway’ in 1883. This network played a key role in the development of coffee cultivation by facilitating its transport to export ports.

Nestled between the Atlantic rainforest and the Brazilian Cerrado, Mogiana enjoys a hilly landscape and a wide variety of climates. This contrast between humid areas and dry plains creates a unique environment for coffee trees. The strong sunlight stimulates photosynthesis in the leaves – the plant's solar collectors – contributing to the slow and aromatic development of the beans.

This pure origin Mogiana Arabica coffee is renowned for its natural balance and aromatic depth. It is also FCCO (Fresh Coffee Clean Ocean) certified, a guarantee of quality and commitment to low-impact production that respects ecosystems and coffee supply chains.

Green Lion Coffee: sustainable transportation by sail

This sustainable coffee with Fresh Coffee Clean Ocean certification is transported by sail aboard the Anemos cargo sailboat owned by TOWT. Powered solely by wind, it crosses the Atlantic without fossil fuels, offering an eco-friendly alternative to traditional maritime transport.

This responsible delivery method reduces CO2 emissions by 75%, demonstrating a strong commitment to low-impact coffee. Unlike noisy and polluting container ships, sailing limits noise pollution, protecting marine wildlife that is often disturbed.

By focusing on renewable energy, this eco-friendly coffee avoids dependence on oil and large shipping companies. It reflects a conscious choice: to produce and consume coffee that respects the planet at every stage of its journey.

The sailing voyage connects the Brazilian coast to the port of Le Havre. It embodies a different idea of trade: slower, but fairer. A committed coffee where every cup has meaning, and whose taste is enriched by time, effort and conviction.
