After a long wait, we are pleased to announce that our Brazil CoE’s have arrived. Well at least one of the two lots that we were fortunate to purchase during the recent Brazil Cup of Excellence competition. Fazenda Sertaozino is an award winning farm acclaimed for exemplary craftsmanship, consistently producing spectacular yellow bourbon coffee, an heirloom variety. Located in a mountainous region in the southern part of Minas Gerais, The geography and microclimate produce optimal conditions for the heirloom Yellow Bourbon, Mondo Novo and Catuai variatels that are grown on the farm. In addition to the 370 hectares of coffee production, the farm possesses 300 additional hectares of rain forest reserves with centennial tree and protected water resources. The property is managed by an agronomist named Jose Renato Gonvalves Dias who uses organic fertilizers produced on the farm to help nurture the plants and ensure that all coffees are prepared in an environmentally-friendly way. Toasted almonds, honey, and an apricot sweetness dominate the cup. There is a pleasant brightness in the finish.
