“There’s nothing sweeter than a cup of bitter coffee” by Rian Aditia

If you are a coffee fan, taste our delicious coffees from all over the world, from Peru to Guatemala. We offer 6 types of BIO coffee with different origins and aromas.

To name just one, Coffee Bourbon Pointu, considered as a natural decaffeinated, fruity with a light, highly aromatic texture. This plant is endemic to the volcanic island of Réunion, the birthplace of this unique and rare variety. The shrub, a pointed plant, grew on the island, which was once known as Bourbon Island, hence the origin of its name. Following a period of natural disasters, the plant almost disappeared. But just over twenty years ago, a group of Réunionese growers decided to replant this coffee plant on the Island and take over the production. The business remains small, the plants stay vulnerable, and the coffee is extremely prized and rare, hence its high price. Good news, at Le Centenaire, you can enjoy a cup, whenever you wish.
