HOW CAMARDO COFFEE IS BORN
THE SELECTION
Inflexible selectors for a flawless raw material
Our journey begins with the selection of coffee. Only the best beans make it. In fact, if you look around, here you can see: precious varieties of Arabica and Robusta, single origins, beans of organic and fair trade origin from the most important producers in the world in Central America, South America, Africa, and Asia.
PREPARATION
An expert team for checking and cleaning incoming beans
Selected green coffee samples arrive at the company, where they are checked, roasted, and tasted. Here you can meet our team that evaluates their sensory qualities. Once the correspondence of the bean with the sample is verified, we store the coffee in a warehouse at controlled temperature and humidity. It is from here that the raw coffee is taken and cleaned with a sifting and dusting machine, capable of eliminating any impurities from the bean.
ROASTING
Camardo method roasting, where magic happens
This is where we roast coffee according to precise times, methods, and temperatures. Here you can see the skill of the roaster that makes a difference, interpreting the personality and bringing out the character of each individual bean. Those who know recognize in Camardo roasting a dedicated roasting method that takes all the time to bring out the aromatic concentrate enclosed in each coffee.
AIR COOLING
We don't give ourselves airs, we use them to offer you a unique coffee
After the roasting time, follow the coffee in the cooling phase, which is rigorously done with air, in order to obtain beans with a low level of moisture, for excellent final yield.
OPTICAL SELECTOR
Second level of selection for the Camardo raw material
In this phase, you can see our optical selector in action, which scans each roasted bean for shape, color, and size, keeping only perfectly roasted and flawless beans.
BLENDING
Recipes handed down for a family art
We have almost reached the end of our journey, but it is a crucial moment because here we put into practice the art of blending, the result of decades of experience and a strong commitment to continuous improvement. Here the Camardo family creates the secret recipes of their blends, only after careful trials and tastings, they manage to obtain the perfect, elegant, balanced taste of Camardo Coffee.
PACKAGING
Packages designed to hold a treasure of aromatic profiles
Roasted coffee is an extremely delicate product that continues to emit carbon dioxide after roasting. It is important, therefore, to release excess carbon dioxide but at the same time preserve the aromas, protecting the coffee from air, light, heat, and humidity. In this phase, you can see fourteen automated packaging lines and various types of packaging (tin cans, bags with one-way valve) that allow the perfect preservation of coffee until the preparation moment.
STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION
Camardo Coffee is ready for the journey, destination cup
In this phase, you can see all the packages of Camardo Coffee stored in our warehouse at a controlled temperature and zenithal lighting, for energy savings and extra attention in terms of environmental sustainability. From here, the coffee will start its journey to cups around the world, always accompanied by training, assistance, and the dissemination of Camardo coffee culture to professionals and enthusiasts, ensuring the perfect success of our excellence coffee.
