Andrea Costa is the mother of Bruna, director of Bossa Coffee. Andrea and her brother Luis take care of their farm which belonged to their father who was once a big coffee exporter in Brazil. The farm is where Andrea has lived most of her life and where
Bruna grew up. Chacara Santo Antonio has an incredibly preserved nature reserve
where you can spot the Guara wolf, Tucans and the Brazilian Jaguar. It also has a
beautiful river where the family spent most of their weekends.
The family has always produced fine coffees since Mr Decio, Andrea’s father,
started his export business in the 1970s. Mr Decio was always a pioneer in
investing in different varietals and processing methods. However, Andrea and
Luis took this passion one step further once Bruna started working in specialty
coffee internationally. Their ambition was to produce incredible specialty lots for
her to sell and showcase around the UK and beyond.
Mother and daughter have a passion for the coffee industry and also for
promoting the region where both grew up.
Finca Filadelfia
Gooseberry, Apple Pie
Origin- Guatemala
Varietal- Bourbon, Villa Sarchi
Process- Washed
Nestled in the iconic Antigua Valley, Finca Filadelfia is a true gem in the world of specialty coffee. Renowned for its consistent quality year after year, the farm has achieved impressive scores, with the 2024 harvest reaching an outstanding 87+. This success is no accident—it's the result of a deep-rooted obsession with quality that runs through the family and their dedicated team.
It was split into 4 unique parcels, or farms, when it passed on to the third generation of the family. Coffee represents 214.64 hectares of the entire farm. The coffee that we call Finca Filadelfia today is from Roberto Dalton’s 1/4 of the original finca, plus a new lot that he purchased later on and named Altos de Filadelfia, as it is located on the hill above his inherited lot.
Manuel Matheu (Marta’s great great great grandfather) initially leased the land at Filadelfia, and like most farms in Guatemala they originally harvested cochineal, a scale insect from which the natural dye carmine is derived. During the industrial revolution, Germany developed synthetic dyes, removing the need for the natural carmine colour. As a result, cochineal farms across Guatemala faced a devastating recession. In order to survive, in 1864 Manuel made the decision to transition away from cochineal to coffee.
After his first harvest, he went to London to sell his first crop. After returning from London, where he had achieved great success, he was commissioned by the President of Guatemala to show other small farmers how to grow coffee. Thus the Antigua coffee growing region was born. Eventually, Manuel’s son purchased the lad his father had leased. Through the years Finca Filadelfia has been run by passionate owners, like Marta’s great grandmother Elisa, who ran the farm until she was 95 years old and placed 2nd in the first Guatemala Cup of Excellence in 2001. The Dalton family is proud to honour its coffee growing heritage, and the farm is currently being operated by the 5th and 6th generations.
From the start, it was a full family effort. Elisabete, her husband, their kids, and even their daughters-in-law rolled up their sleeves to get the farm going. Over time, they expanded, adding a second property, and have been fully immersed in the coffee world ever since. Today, they’re constantly learning and improving, always aiming to produce amazing coffee.

In short, a mix of everything.
Assessing new coffee can be a wasteful process. Here at the roastery it takes a few attempts if find the perfect cup which means there will always be coffee that doesn't quite make the grade, even if its delicous. So instead of adding the waste problem we decided to offer it as a fantasitc value for money alternative. No one bag is the same!

WHY SUPPORTING WOMEN IN COFFEE MATTERS
Would you do 70% of the work for 20% of the money?
In 2018 research carried out by the International Coffee Organisation showed that women have systematically lower access to resources, such as land, credit and information, than men.
We believe that the empowerement of women in the coffee supply chain will greatly improve gender equality and play a significant role in securing the future of coffee.
