***new brazil fosforico
We taste rich dark chocolate, roasted almonds, and a subtle dried fruit acidity in this natural process coffee from the Cerrado Mineiro region of Brazil. Cozy up to a warm fire and get ready to snuggle up with someone as you sip on this dark roasted coffee crafted to your robust taste. Maybe you have a hard day of manual labor ahead of you. You need to get outside to split wood. Don’t forget to fuel up for your laborious day.
Our roaster, Brandon Seabrook Nelson, enjoys preparing Brazil Fosforico using his Chemex, Kalita Wave, & French Press at 1:15 and 1:16 ratios, medium to medium/course grind.
Los Volcanes Coffee
We have decided to partner with Los Volcanes Coffee (LVC) long term because we believe that type of quality control that happens with this organization at origin is phenomenal. Dan Griffin, with LVC, shared with us about the incredible work they began in Guatemala to build a model farm for any other farm in the world to produce. A Brazilian, Carlino Franco, moved to Guatemala to manage their lab. Now Brazilian producers travel to the lab in Guatemala to understand what they are doing to produce high quality coffees. Fazenda Rio Brilhante is an advanced farm in Brazil with a microbiology lab.
Fazenda Rio Brilhante
The micro-region of Pântano is known for its well-defined seasons, consistent seasonal rain, and favorable climate for coffee production. These conditions are ideal for a natural processed coffee. After the ripe cherries are harvested, the cherries are sorted by density in order to process further the highest quality cherries.
Inácio Urban started with only 20 hectares of land dedicated to coffee, but now has expanded to 1,600 hectares of land. This land is separated into 45 sections and each section is divided by larger trees that can block extreme winds because of the relative flatness of the micro-region. And by law, rural properties must maintain a forest reserve, which means it must be covered by native vegetation. Fazenda Rio Brilhante produces approximately 130,000 bags (60kg) of coffee per harvest.
