- Antônio and Terezinha Rigno
São Judas sits in Piatã, in Bahia's Chapada Diamantina, and is worked by one of Brazil's most respected producing couples.
Antônio Rigno, now 77, still spends every day on the farm running the growing and processing, while Terezinha, 80, handles the administration and runs their much-loved cafe in town. Forty years in, the pair are known less for their own reputation than for how freely they share it, mentoring growers across Piatã and holding a hard line on sustainable farming and the native forest covering much of the property. It lands in the cup as a sweet, easygoing espresso: mandarin and almond over milk chocolate.
