THE FARM: Cerrado is a relatively new region for coffee production. Located in the northwest of Minas Gerais state, Cerrado is a large plateau where the predominant topography is flat to slightly wavy. The altitude varies from 900 to 1250 meters above sea level. The combination of well-defined seasons, abundant sunlight throughout the year, advanced farming techniques and entrepreneurial spirit forged the pillars that sustain Cerrado as we know it today. Cerrado is also one of the most biodiverse and complex regions on earth. The area is home to roughly 5% of all species on earth.

OUR ROAST: This is a dry-processed coffee. Dry processing, sometimes called natural processing, leaves the coffee cherry in its natural state, allowing the cherry and bean to dry together. By leaving the cherry attached to the seed, dry processing allows the coffee bean to absorb sugar and flavors from the fruit. While it can be a more challenging and inconsistent process, the best dry-processed coffees are delicious and flavorful, packed with fruity, sugar flavors.

Our roast has a sweet dry fragrance with hints of apple and brown spice. Our deep roast, brewed well, yields a wonderfully balanced cup of milk chocolate and roasted almond.
