Rafael Catheringer

The property came from his father's inheritance and there in Caparaó Rafael met his wife who also worked with coffee for a few generations.

​

Today the two work together and are passionate about rural life and coffee production. They always seek knowledge and at a meeting of coffee growers they became friends with Alexandre, from Sítio Bela Vista, who invited them to start working with better quality in the coffees.

Since then, the Catheringer family has been betting on this and winning awards throughout the region.

​

The property has 30% preserved area and a natural mine that supplies water.

Coffee began as a means of sustenance and today it has also become a passion and challenge.
