We spend the Summer months in the Central Algarve and my wife, as an Ethiopian, loves coffee. Unfortunately she has nearly exhausted her supply of unroasted beans and has another three weeks to go before returning home. Does anyone know where she can buy unroasted coffee beans? Ideally this should be in the Algarve but desperation may mean she is prepared to travel! Origin is not important but obviously Ethiopian is the preference. Must be 100% arabica beans. Yes, I know Portuguese coffee and coffee shops are wonderful but anyone who has witnessed the Ethiopian coffee ceremony and tasted the end result will confirm that it is just not the same. Obrigado in advance!

Hope this helps.

Thanks barlaventoexpert for your reply but these are roasted beans. I looked at the website and it seems that they do not supply unroasted beans. The search continues!

Are these suitable? Amazon.es

If you type in "granos de café sin tostar" it comes up with more.

Very expensive coffee!

Rosemary

To be honest I did not look at the prices of the unroasted coffee beans but purely looked to see if they were available. Even if I had looked it would not have informed me as I do not buy coffee.

Sorry Rosemary, I was not criticising you. I was just remarking at the cost of that particular coffee.

Rosemary

No problem, I did not take it as a criticism. There were others but again I did not look at the prices.

Thanks Rosemary; I'll give this a try. I was trying to avoid Amazon and buy from a local stockist but it seems I have no choice. As to the cost; it's cheaper than buying a cup of (inferior) coffee in a coffee shop and, more importantly, what price "happy wife happy life"! :-)

As the replies above, I did a VQS for
"Compara graos de café nao torrados"
The results where not promising

How about these?

Just a quick note to thank those that responded to my plea for help. We ordered from Amazon and the beans arrived yesterday. Prompt delivery and no postal/courier problems that I was worried about. My wife now has enough beans to last her until the end of her stay in Portugal. Thanks everyone once again.
