Gloria Jean’s Coffees has taken delivery of the award winning Lot # 5 Norival Favaro – Sao Marcos bean and is giving its customers the opportunity to sample and buy the bean – which is one of the world’s most sought after coffees. Only 2,756 kilograms, or 46 sacks, of the bean was produced, making it exceptionally rare in the context of the eight million metric tons of green coffee produced globally each year.
This exotic limited edition bean was recently awarded fifth place in the world at the prestigious Brazil Cup of Excellence® award.
Gloria Jean’s Coffees Global Drink Development Manager, Kane Bodiam, said the Lot #5 Norival Favaro – Sao Marcos bean, from the Sarutaiá region of Brazil, excelled in a tough competition because of its distinct and aromatic flavours, velvety texture and delicately sweet aftertaste. This coffee is available exclusively from Gloria Jean’s stores, packaged in glossy black 200 g bags.
