Brazil Natural Arabica Cerrado NY 2/3, Screen 15 up, Fc, Organic, Fazenda 5 Estrelas

Coffee production in Brazil represents about one-third of the entire coffee production, making it by far the biggest producer worldwide for the last 150 years. In central Brazil, the extensive Cerrado savannah is interrupted by seemingly endless plateaus called Chapadas. They cover the states Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul, Mato Grosso, Tocantins, and Minas Gerais, turning them into one of the largest coffee production areas in the world..

This coffee comes from this region, specifically from the municipality of Patrocínio in Cerrado Mineiro. It was grown by Ricardo Bartholo at Fazenda Cinco Estrelas, a 320-hectare coffee estate situated at some 1,100 meters above sea level. Ricardo, previously a director at a cellulose company, developed a deep passion for coffee and transitioned into a dedicated farmer. In 1995, he relocated to Patrocínio, where he is highly recognized for his leadership within the industry, having been President of Expocaccer on multiple occasions, a role he currently holds. His keen interest in sustainability has led him to invest heavily in converting his coffee production from conventional to organic. Today, the farm is Rainforest Alliance and UTZ certified and is a pioneer in the UN-approved Carbon Credit sale program.

This natural coffee is certified Organic. After the cherries were selectively picked, they were set out to sun-dry on cement patios. During this phase, the coffee was consistently moved to ensure even drying. The result is a sweet and chocolatey cup - we invite you to try it!
