Coffee roaster Di Bella Coffee has launched a new single origin coffee called Ninho Da Άguia.

The limited release bean from the mountains of Brazil has a unique flavour and rare profile, according to the company.

Sourced ethically through Di Bella Coffee’s Crop to Cup program and philosophy of direct-trade relationships with farmers, the coffee comes from Eagle’s Nest Farm in Brazil.

The farm is surrounded by high mountains and untouched vegetation in altitudes above 1400 metres.

The coffee displays apple and pear acidity, with a rich chocolate base and a sweetness reminiscent of caramel and molasses, Di Bella says.

It is roasted, and best suited to espresso brewing.

The farm maintains over 70 per cent of its area as wilderness, free from pesticides.

RRP is $12.50 for a 250g packet.

Packaging News

New European rules on generic environmental claims have prompted the Australasian Bioplastics Association to warn that packaging carrying poorly substantiated claims could be marketed in Australia.

Australia's environment ministers have declared packaging reform urgent and named soft plastics as an initial priority, but offered no firm timetable or regulatory commitments. SPSA has welcomed the soft plastics focus, while Boomerang Alliance and WMRR have raised concerns about the lack of concrete action.

Economic analysis commissioned by SPSA estimates national recycling reforms could deliver up to $278m in net productivity gains and stimulate up to $2.6b in capital investment each year.
