A true gem sourced from the beautiful region of Paranaiba in Brazil, this coffee is much more than just a beverage; it's a testament to the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship that define the art of coffee cultivation. Grown with utmost care on the renowned Barbosa's Farm, this coffee embodies the dedication and passion of the esteemed farmer, Mr. Barbosa, whose expertise and commitment are evident in every single bean. Situated at an altitude of 1100 MASL, Barbosa's Farm provides the perfect environment for coffee plants to flourish. This elevation contributes significantly to the beans' unique flavour profile, which will undoubtedly captivate your senses.
As an origin, Brazil is probably one of the most well-known for coffee, and this coffee is certainly a great example of why! These beans undergo a meticulous process, ensuring that only the highest-quality beans make it into your cup. The result is a coffee that embodies both elegance and complexity.
With this coffee lot, we are very proud to work directly with the farmer, Mr. Barbosa. The family has been involved in coffee since the early twentieth century, with his great-grandparent Elias Barbosa starting the family coffee connection. Now the family’s connection to coffee has grown even stronger, with the family focusing on sustainable speciality-grade coffee and micro lots of different varietals.
At Barbosa's Farm, the journey from bean to cup is one of relentless dedication. The medium roast of these beans ensures a balanced cup, with tasting notes of Chocolate & Caramel dancing on your palate, accented by a subtle fruitiness that adds a delightful twist. The roasting process is meticulously managed to enhance these natural flavours, ensuring that each sip is a harmonious blend of richness and complexity. The careful selection and processing of the beans further highlight the exceptional quality and flavour potential inherent in this unique coffee.
