An awesome blend of two Brazilian coffees from farms both situated South of Minas Gerais. The first farm was bought in 1943 by Jose Flora. He tried loads of things on the property like potato planting, milk production, pig and chicken farming and even a brickyard and sawmill, before eventually discovering coffee farming in 1972. Today his grandson Paulo is responsible for the farm and uses the regions incredible climate and soil to produce the best quality coffee.
The second farm, Fazenda Paraiso, owned by Guy Carvalho is located in Cabo Verde. At an average altitude of 950 meters, well defined seasons, low humidity and bang on temperatures, the region is ideal for coffee production. The farm produces both natural (where the bean is dried in the fruit) and pulped natural coffee (where the majority of the fruit is removed) to speed the process up when it’s lashing it down. Woof.
