Acerca de

Caturra is a natural dwarf mutation of Bourbon first discovered in Minas Gerais, Brazil, in the 1930s. Its compact size allows higher planting density and easier harvesting, making it commercially important across Latin America. Caturra delivers a bright, citric acidity with a lighter body than its Bourbon parent, and performs best at higher altitudes where it develops more complexity.
