Brazil is not only a football and samba powerhouse but also an undisputed giant in global coffee production. For centuries, Brazil has held the position of the world's largest coffee producer, thanks to its vast regions that are perfectly suited for growing this golden bean. In the Minas Gerais region, which is the heart of Brazilian coffee production, you'll find mountain slopes covered with endless coffee plantations. This region, along with others like Espírito Santo, is known for its ideal climate and soil conditions for growing high-quality coffee. This coffee treasure comes directly from the heart of Minas Gerais.
Dry processing, also known as "natural processing," is one of the oldest and most traditional methods of processing coffee. After harvest, the whole coffee cherries are dried in the sun, often on raised beds or suspended nets, until they soften and are ready to be peeled. This process can take several weeks and requires careful monitoring and regular turning of the beans to prevent mold and rot. Dry processing typically results in coffee with a richer, fuller flavor profile, with fruity and honeyed undertones. The resulting coffee is more demanding to roast but rewards you with a unique, intense flavor experience.
