Provenance and Craft

This Arabica blend draws from celebrated microregions in Brazil-Mantiqueira de Minas (Santa Rita do Sapucaí) and Serra do Paredão (São Sebastião da Bela Vista). It’s sourced from producers Carlos Henrique & Daniele Alkimin and Marcos Rennó & Andréia Moreira, grown at 920–1,200 meters and composed of Yellow Catuaí and Mundo Novo varieties. The result is a cup that marries altitude-driven sweetness with the classic structure Brazil is known for.

Careful post-harvest choices-Fermented and Natural processes-deepen sweetness and coax out layers of cocoa, caramelized sugars, and ripe fruit. This blend exemplifies thoughtful craft: clarity and balance from precise selection, with a plush texture that makes every sip feel complete.

Tasting Experience

From aroma to finish, this specialty coffee is generous and reassuring. Expect a creamy, dessert-like sweetness, lifted by subtle fruit and framed by a polished, medium-to-full body. Acidity is medium–low, providing a gentle lift without overshadowing the chocolate and nut profile.

• Tasting notes: Chocolate, Red Fruits, Milk Chocolate, Caramel, Apple Pie, Cocoa, Raw Sugar (Rapadura), Nuts
• Body: Medium to Full
• Acidity: Medium–Low
• SCA Score: Above 86 points

The first sip recalls milk chocolate and caramel, followed by an apple-pie warmth-brown sugar, baked fruit, a whisper of spice. As it cools, you’ll notice red fruit brightness and a cocoa-dusted finish that lingers like a good conversation.

Why This Blend Works

Brazil’s Yellow Catuaí and Mundo Novo are known for sweetness and structure. Here, their character shines: the natural component builds a foundation of chocolate and nuts, while the fermented lots add dimension-silken texture, refined sweetness, and a gentle fruit halo. If you appreciate the transparency of single-origin lots, you’ll enjoy how this blend honors that clarity while offering a rounder, more complete cup.

Brewing Guidance for a Standout Cup

This coffee is roasted and composed to excel with filter methods and traditional brewers. With a steady, even extraction, you’ll unlock its creamy sweetness and layered complexity. Use fresh, filtered water and keep your gear clean to preserve aromatics.

• Water temperature: 195–205°F (90–96°C)
• Starting ratio: 1:15 to 1:16 (e.g., 20 g coffee to 300–320 g water)
• Grind suggestion: Medium for pour-over; medium-coarse for immersion
• Total brew time: 2:45–3:30 for pour-over; 4:00 for immersion

Recommended Methods

• Pour-Over (V60, Kalita, Chemex): Highlights milk chocolate, rapadura sweetness, and red-fruit lift. Aim for a steady pour and a flat, even bed.
• Auto Drip Machine: Balanced and clean for everyday cups; use a medium grind and fresh paper filters.
• French Press: Emphasizes body and cocoa; steep 4 minutes, then decant immediately for clarity.
• Moka Pot: Rich and syrupy with caramel and nut notes; grind slightly finer than drip and avoid over-heating.
• Espresso: While crafted for filters, it can pull a comforting shot with careful dialing-expect milk-chocolate sweetness and a gentle fruit accent. Great for a mellow cappuccino.

Pro tip: If the cup tastes flat, grind finer and increase agitation slightly. If it turns bitter or astringent, coarsen the grind and reduce contact time. This blend responds beautifully to minor adjustments.
