About this Product
Roaster’s tasing notes: dark chocolate / sticky toffee pudding
Brazil is the largest producer of coffee in the world. With such diversity, the range of coffee that it produces is vast – from small holder farms to vast estates. Soils, regional climate and temperatures make great growing conditions. However, Brazil lacks altitude – a factor considered crucial for creating the very best flavours expected from Arabica coffee and much of the coffee is grown at or below 1000m above sea level, much lower than the typical 1400 – 1800 masl that can be found in many other coffee producing nations.
Brazil has worked hard in recent years to promote itself as a sustainable producer, and global attention has forced various legislature through to enforce the protection of indigenous habitats and forestry. Many estates have taken this further and included substantial conservation areas on their estates.
This estate brings us a natural processed arabica coffee, of bourbon and catuai varietals, grown at around 1000 metres above sea level. The coffee is named after the Santos port in Sao Paulo where the coffee is exported.
