From farm to cup

Four steps, no shortcuts.

  1. 01

    Cerrado Mineiro

    Minas Gerais · Brazil

    Catuaí Amarelo from the Cerrado Mineiro, Brazil's first coffee region with a Denomination of Origin: rainy summers, dry winters and a harvest that waits for ripe fruit.

  2. 02

    Natural process

    The whole fruit dries

    Ripe cherries dry whole, skin and pulp on, before the bean is taken out. That is where the body and the caramel, doce-de-leite sweetness come from.

  3. 03

    Roasted in Florianópolis

    Florianópolis · Brazil

    Roasted in Florianópolis, on Santa Catarina island.

In the cup

Caramel and doce de leite from the first sip, nuts as it cools a little. A full body and a long, sweet aftertaste that stays after the cup is gone.

Keeping it fresh

In its own bag, tightly closed, away from light and heat. Not in the fridge: moisture and smells spoil coffee. Once open, it is at its best within four weeks.
