Daterra’s Sweet Yellow has a delightful nutty sweetness expected from a semi-washed bean. Daterra Farms, the bean’s origin, was not only the very first Brazilian farm to achieve Rainforest Alliance certification but the first farm in the world to reach “Level A,” the RFA’s highest possible grading. For decades, Daterra has been protecting flora and fauna, saving and recycling water, and preserving the forests around them. When it comes to sustainability, Daterra Farms is king.
Cupping Notes: Medium body, good acidity, and intense sweetness with notes of nut and butter.

It is nutty and buttery and wonderful like tarrazu but the end of the sip has a floral aroma that makes it perfect. A lighter roast shows off the nutty and buttery flavors. A darker roast shows off the floral aroma. Medium dark roast seems to be a perfect balance. This is my new favorite coffee for the family and I share it with all my friends.

Updated Review: Roasted 25 seconds into second crack with my new SR800 with extension tube. Sweet and smooth. What a difference a little change makes!

Great Bean! Lots of nutty flavor at a light-medium roast. Does really well when paired with a bean that can add more body to each sip so the nuttiness can hit your taste buds.

My roast resulted in extremely uneven results. I had to pick out tons of over and under roasted beans. End result was a flavor that wasn’t complex nor desirable. I stop my roasts shortly after first crack as I prefer light roasts.

Bought 3#s based on the great reviews. However, I am not a fan. I’ve tried 3 different roast profiles from City to just into SC to past SC. I am not tasting any sweetness whatsoever. It’s drinkable but not a good one for pour over when there are other Brazilian coffees that are so much better. Maybe best suited for espresso.

These beans are fantastic. I roasted my first batch a couple weeks ago and since I have really come to love this stuff. Both for pour over and aeropress, these produce a wonderful, smooth, buttery sweet cup. Low acidity but still well-bodied, I found this to be my new go to. I'll be reordering, no doubt.

Wonderful sweet, nutty, coffee. A nice brightness. Roasted it around a medium. Gonna try a dark roast next. Definitely will order more.

Very good coffee. I love the dark roast as I can drink it without cream and sugar. Such great nutty aromas coming off this bean!

I roasted it till it is chocolate milky colored, grinder more finer because of the lighter color and the result: Good Stuff! someone said it had a gorgeous sweet nut and a clean-sweat after taste and low acidity at this roast, I totally confirm it. I will surely buy more of this in the feature.

Liked this just a wee bit better than their "Sweet Blue" (both roasted medium dark) but both are excellent coffees.

Unlike most Brazil coffees that tend toward the bitter side, this one has a rich, deep flavor with a distinct taste of dark chocolate and vanilla. Roast it just past the second crack for a rich taste.

I usually do not order coffee from Brazil because of the biting acidity, but this coffee is different. Very well balanced for a Brazil coffee. Rich and great tasting. I highly recommend this coffee.

Tastes like graham cracker and honey coffee.

Intense sweetness from gorgeous sweet nuts. Good underlying acidity and medium body when done at a medium roast. This coffee offers a clean-sweet aftertaste.
