In the sunlit highlands of Minas Gerais, nestled within the renowned region of Carmo de Minas, a centuries-old tradition of crafting extraordinary specialty coffee thrives. This region is celebrated globally for producing some of Brazil’s most rare and award-winning coffees, capturing the terroir’s essence with every sip.
At the heart of this legacy is a commitment to balance — a delicate dance of honoring time-tested traditions while embracing innovation with open arms. During the harvest, every coffee cherry is treated as a masterpiece, handpicked three times daily to ensure only the ripest fruit makes its way into your cup, preserving its intricate flavor and fragrance.
Sustainability isn’t just a practice here. It’s a philosophy. The production relies on pure spring water, the gentle power of solar energy and natural fertilizers derived from composted byproducts of their cattle farming. This harmony with nature enriches the soil and cultivates biodiversity, creating a ripple effect of positivity throughout the ecosystem.
