The Story
Since we launched our Brazilian offering a few years ago, it’s been an absolute favourite. Our Brazil Clássico series, is perfect for those who like a reliable cup, a flavour that’s bold, smooth & sweet. These are characteristics we’ve endeavoured to honour when cupping for a fresh Brazilian coffee as we roll through the seasons. This lot has a big smooth chocolatey body, with notes of honey & hazelnut. Working well black but also cutting though dairy and alternative milk for those who favour their brews that way.
This version of Brazil Classico is a regional lot from the Cerrado Mineiro region, located in northwest of Minas Gerais State. It's a world-recognized, high-quality coffee producing region and became the first Protected Geographical Indication in Brazil in 2005, with full Designation of Origin in 2013. A strong characteristic of this region is its well-defined seasons—a hot, wet summer is followed by a pleasantly dry winter. The dry climate during harvest eliminates potential problems with humidity during the drying process.
