This coffee comes from Casa Almeida Barreto, a family-owned farm in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Originally purchased for wine production, but with thriving coffee trees already in place, Jorge and Gabriel quickly realized that the coffee was too valuable to ignore. Today, they produce specialty coffees at the highest level – with a winemaker’s eye for terroir, fermentation and detail.

Using stainless steel tanks and technology from the winery, the family has developed processes that preserve the aroma and character of each batch. The coffee is grown organically, About even without certification, and is processed with great respect for each lot's unique expression.

The 2024 harvest was challenging – with severe drought and smaller berries than usual. But thanks to the farm’s elevated location and soils rich in organic matter, they were still able to create coffee with high sweetness and fine acidity. This batch is a clear example of scientific craftsmanship at its best.

1. The Origin

Casa Almeida Barreto is located at an altitude of 1,200 meters in Minas Gerais. The farm is divided into small plots according to terroir, sun, altitude and soil type – all to express the unique characteristics of each plot.

2. Harvesting & processing

The 2024 harvest was marked by extreme drought in Brazil. Despite this, the berries ripened slowly due to the cool nights. The natural process was chosen to preserve sweetness and body as some fermentation projects could not be carried out.

3. Drying & technology

The beans were dried whole, in their pericarp, using the same temperature control and hygiene required for wine production, resulting in a coffee with a deep flavor and silky body – even under harsh conditions.

4. Roasting

This coffee is filter roasted, with a roast profile designed to highlight its creamy, chocolaty sweetness and balanced texture. A smooth, elegant cup for any brewing method.
