Manufacturers and brand history
This brand is supplied to the Russian market by the Swiss company Zhirdin Cafe Solution and the Russian company Orimi Trade. Initially, the company was engaged in the supply of Indian tea, then expanded its range.
Manufacturers have taken a new approach to product packaging - now the packs do not allow air and light to pass through, therefore, oxidation of grains and oil does not occur in them. This allowed us to preserve the true taste of elite Arabica varieties.
The beans are heated using a double method - drum and convection, so the beans have the same degree of roasting. The process takes place without access to oxygen.
