Description

Green coffee is raw Roast prior to consumption

Cerrado is a region in the state of Minas Gerais, the largest coffee-producing state in Brazil. Coffee has been a major crop in this region since 1980's mainly because of the devastating black frost of 1975 that forced growers from the Parana region to relocate north to Cerrado and other areas of Minas Gerais.

Today, coffee is produced by over 4,500 growers on 175,00 hectares of farmland with yields of approximately 5.5 to 6.0 million bags per year. The coffee is grown in rich soil that the natives call "Terra Roxa" or "Red Earth" and other factors such as consistent rains, high daytime temperatures, and dry winters combine to make the Cerrado region ideal for producing coffee.

Cupping Notes: Walnut and dark chocolate notes that carry over into the cup with brown sugar; low acidity, medium body, a balanced cup.

Coffees from Brazil are some of my favorites, this one included. I love the nutty flavor and it is so smooth. I roast on a sheet pan in the oven and I am so impressed with the quality of coffee I get from here.

Roasted dark- smooth, sweet, low acidity- I would add a bit more “winey” to the profile. So good!!

I haven't been roasting my own beans for very long, but of the 6 or so varieties I've done, this bean has been the trickiest. Again, probably just me because I'm still new to the hobby, but getting a consistent roast has taken a bit of work. I'd also like to note, it produces a TON of chaff.

Very good bean. Makes excellent latte's. Roasts very nice in a $17 popcorn popper machine. Just had a cup today, just wish my artwork was good, but hey doesn't effect the taste, LOL. 😃 definitely worth getting. 👍 👍

A very smooth roast! I love to roast it dark and there is no bitterness to it at all. I highly recommend these beans.

I’ve only been roasting my own beans for about a year and this was my first time with this one. I took it to a dark roast and let it sit for a few days before giving it a try. This is a good cup of coffee. It’s chocolatey and nutty with a slight sweetness. I can drink two or three cups of this throughout my morning, I just love it.

Roasted medium to medium dark. 1 batch each. Smooth taste. Plesant taste. Profile is correct. Prepared in Krups EA8250 super automatic espresso machine. Strong, hottest setting. Great Coffee. At the price, phenominal - great job.
