Thanks for the posting on Suplicy cafes in the Coffee Shops forum. I recently was in Sao Paulo and went to the Lorena one off Paulista after seeing your posting. Truly one of the best caps I have ever had. A gret shop with a great atmosphere. Espresso done the way it should be.

Hey Ed...yes DO it all. NZ is certainly a caffeinated country from the cities to the smallest towns. Will be back there myself in February. Merry Xmas you and best for 2009!

Hey Ed.... Auckland??? You must add in Wellington as well. Its the undisputed coffee capital of NZ

nice photos hope you post a few more - greetings from Canada - Steve

Ed, i'll let you know when I leave the states next year. It would be great to ride with you. Salud.

Edson.....I'll try to catch up with you next week on the telephone. Thanks.

Edson.......what's the best time and phone number to call you? I also sent two invitations to growers in Sul de Minas, and am waiting to hear from them, but believe that you know them? You can email me directly to my Earthlink account.

There is a Coffee farm called Fazenda Monte D'Este as informations bellow :

Road Dr. Ademar de Barros, km 212,5 (Road Campinas/Mogi Mirim)
Telephone +55 19 3257-1236

Aloha Ed,
Sorry for the late reply- life got out of hand! In any case, yes, if you can recommend farms between you and Campinas, that would be great. I'm certainly willing to accept contact info, too. :-) I'm also eager to know of any good cafes in either of these cities.

I suggest writing me via email if you think it will be easier: coffeaconsulting@gmail.com

Thanks!
Shawn

Hey Ed,

I'm traveling to Campinas in September for a coffee science conference but want to see some farms and play a tourist for a bit.

Do you think you can help a bit?

Thanks,
Shawn
