This is our seventh season receiving the Sao Silvestre crop, we are very fortunate to have built such strong relations with Ismael & Eduardo and our working relationship continues to see progress year on year.
Process
The cherries are collected with the help of mechanical harvesters and brought to the farm. They are carefully selected and graded, all impurities are removed and the cherries are pulped. Sticky parchment beans with the mucilage still attached are then spread out onto raised beds where they are slowly dried over the course of 2 weeks. During this time they are turned multiple times a day and further manual selection is taken place. When the beans are dried the parchment is removed at the on-farm dry mill.

All our coffee beans are roasted locally on site in Belfast, Northern Ireland by our expert team of roasters.
Our speciality coffee can be purchased as whole bean or ground for your preferred brew method.
Absolutely love the Sao Silvestre beans - always have a kilo bag of these as my "house" coffee. Smooth, classic coffee taste - everyone I give it to loves it; from people who are into coffee and people who don't really care. Can't go wrong with it! Also, Bailies have ridiculously fast shipping. Don't know what wizards you have working in the shipping dep but it's rare that I don't get next day delivery. Top notch all around : ) Thanks!
Love all bailies coffee
I have used these beans for espresso, French press and a local cafe also uses these beans. I love the fruity acidity and medium roast level. I will be buying again.
I like to vary up the coffee I buy this is just too nice. Its so hard to look past when ordering a new bag.
Caffe is just ok. For me I think that overripe grape is not good for me
