ABOUT

Hello, I'm Cleia Junqueira, a Brazilian coffee professional with 18 years of unwavering dedication to the world of coffee. My journey began in the coffee-rich lands of Brazil, where I cultivated my passion for this magical bean. With nine years of experience there and another nine in the dynamic coffee scene of the UAE, I have honed my skills and knowledge from bean to cup.
I'm not just any coffee enthusiast; I am also an International Coffee Judge, a Q-Grader, and a Q Robusta Grader. This extensive training and experience have equipped me with the discerning palate and expertise needed to understand and evaluate coffee on a profound level.
Based in Dubai, I am proud to be an experienced coffee consultant. Whether it's sourcing the finest beans, perfecting roasting profiles, or training baristas to create extraordinary coffee experiences, I've got it all covered. My mission is to share my passion, expertise, and love for coffee with the world. Join me on a journey through the wonderful world of coffee!"
