Brazil Sul De Minas
Nestled on the slopes of the Serra do Pau d’Alho, close to the Cabo Verde river, lies one of Brazil’s oldest coffee-producing regions. Coffee cultivation in this area, around the peaceful hills of Mount Mirante, dates back to the late 18th century. Today, a small community of growers — descendants of the original fazenderos — continues this long-standing tradition, producing one of the most balanced Brazilian coffees, at altitudes ranging from 1000 to 1200 meters.
The coffee is known for its excellent balance, with a medium body and a refined, delicate sweetness. Around 60% of the plants grown here belong to the classic Mundo Novo variety, approximately 30% are Catuai, and the rest include Bourbon and several other cultivars.
The Pergamino lot is composed of carefully selected cherries from two key stages: the initial harvest, which begins in May, and the main harvest that typically takes place from June to July.
