Fazendas Dutra Matas De Minas Gerais Brazil Organic

This organic lot is sourced from Fazendas Dutra in the Matas de Minas region of Minas Gerais, Brazil, where rolling hills, mineral-rich soils, and a balanced climate create ideal conditions for cultivating high-quality Arabica coffee. Grown at moderate elevations, the coffee develops a smooth, approachable profile with natural sweetness and low acidity. The farms follow strict organic and sustainable practices, ensuring both environmental stewardship and consistent cup quality.

After harvesting fully ripe cherries, the coffee is typically processed using the natural or pulped natural method—allowing the fruit to dry around the bean and impart body and sweetness. The beans are then carefully dried on patios and milled to preserve clarity and consistency. The resulting cup is rich and well-rounded, with tasting notes commonly including chocolate, roasted nuts, and mild fruit undertones. It features a creamy body, gentle acidity, and a clean, lingering finish, making it an excellent choice for both espresso and everyday brewing.
