An extremely well balanced blend of coffees from Brazil, Ethiopia, and Mexico.

At Fazenda Cachoeira da Grama, coffee is hand-picked and processed quickly to prevent any unwanted fermentation. Freshly harvested cherries go straight from the field to the wet mill, where ripe cherries are carefully selected and pulped. The pulped coffee is first dried on patios, then finished in mechanical driers to achieve optimal moisture content. Finally, the batches are stored in a humidity-controlled warehouse, protected from unwanted odours to preserve their quality.

The farm’s management places a strong emphasis on social and environmental sustainability. Initiatives include planting native species to maintain ecological balance, providing a school, a club, and a soccer field for workers, offering 47 houses for employees and their families, and treating wastewater to protect groundwater resources.

The coffee from Cachoeira da Grama is the product of meticulous attention at every stage—from seed selection to harvest and processing—reflecting the dedication and care that define the farm’s work.

The naturally processed Ethiopia is a fruity and floral, full bodied coffee that originates from the region of Sidama. Farmers in Sidama dedicate themselves to the quality of the coffee process. Good land along with healthy rainfall in Sidama contributes to the full flavor of the cup. The drying process of this Ardi bean is often meticulous. Farmers will dry the coffee on beds for 8-10 days while punctually turning the coffee every 30 minutes to ensure even drying. This attention to detail produces the distinct flavors and aromas.

Produced small holder farms, the Mexico is an clean, easy-drinking, mild cup. Flavors of cocoa with a nutty aftertaste.
