Catucaí

Catucaí is an Arabica variety originating from Brazil, bred from the high-yield and disease-resistant cultivars Catuai and Icatu. Its name blends the characteristics of its parents, symbolizing both stability and potential.

Widely cultivated in regions like Brazil and Honduras, Catucaí is favored for its adaptability, resistance to leaf rust, and suitability for high-density planting. This has made it a crucial variety for many coffee farmers in Central and South America seeking to enhance both production and quality.

In terms of flavor profile, Catucaí offers a balanced sweetness with a mild acidity. Roasting typically ranges from medium to medium-light, which can highlight warm notes of nuts, caramel, citrus, or brown sugar. Honey or natural (sun-dried) processing methods can further accentuate its fruity aromas and nuanced layers. For specialty coffee enthusiasts who value consistent quality and origin-specific flavors, Catucaí is a variety worth savoring.
