Coffee Specs

Carmo de Minas lies in the rolling hills of Brazil's Mantiqueira region, about four hours from both Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The area is famous for its naturally occurring springs, drawing tourists from around the country to visit the Parque de Águas and luxury spas of the neighboring city of São Lourenço. Increasingly, the region is also known for its coffee production, owing largely to the vision and successes of both CarmoCoffees and the extended Pereira Family.

With 740 hectares, Fazenda Santa Lúcia is more than double the size of Central Park. Most of the farm is dedicated to bananas, corn, and cattle, but the 100 hectares planted with coffee grow mundo novo, yellow catuaí, acaiá, and yellow bourbon. Elevations on the farm range from 900 to 1,250 meters, quite high for its latitude and ideal for the cultivation of high quality coffee.

    Ordered multiple bags after trying a bag from the store. Solid morning cup with a bit of milk.

    Wonderful flavor

    I love this coffee. No bitterness. Good flavor, but not strong. Interesting flavor notes. I think this one is a winner. I’ve bought as available a couple of times and I have not been disappointed.

    Nice morning coffee

    I like this coffee a lot. It’s quite smooth and has a nice aroma of peanut butter and almost caramel.

    With my chemex setup I feel that it comes out almost a little too weak though. Will probably switch to another type going forward
