These beans come from Cerrado Mineiro, a region in the largest coffee producer in the world: Brazil. When you want to sell cheap, deliciously nutty coffees, this is where you source from.

Although nutty tastes have always been popular, we have avoided Brazillian beans due to the impact the coffee trade has had on the rainforests. Today, while deforestation persists, there has been progress. Enough so, that we think it is ok to start offering beans from the farms in this region. Politics and attitudes toward the environment change fast however, so watch this space.

So besides a minimized environmental impact, what else does this coffee offer? Well, if you love your coffee nutty then this is the holy grail. This pulped, natural coffee expresses the purest character that put Brazil on the map. Our Roaster's Choice offers a well balanced caramel / toasted walnut flavours, followed by a pure, sweet finish.

A special, delicate coffee developed through experimentation.

This coffee process was a bet that paid off in flavor!

Let me introduce you to this very special, experimental batch of coffee. Here the beans were inoculated with yeast as part of the production process. There was a very high risk of failure here as introducing any living creature inherently comes with risk. If they had failed, the result would have been the total loss of their annual yield.

Instead this brave group of Ethiopian farmers successfully double ferment their beans (first with yeast, followed by a second lactic acid fermentation) resulting in a very unique taste. We begged them to tell us but we don't know what kind of yeast they used. Was it bread? beer? champagne? sake? a San Francisco sour dough starter??!? Such a missed marketing opportunity.

Anyway if you love fermented coffee, this is the one's for you!
