Imagine a perfectly creamy espresso that tastes like a chocolate dessert with vanilla and hazelnuts, complemented by a refreshing touch of lime. That’s exactly what Mocha Mousse from DAK Roastery offers – a velvet-smooth coffee from Brazil’s Fazenda Pinhal, delighting with its rich flavor and irresistible sweetness. The natural processing creates the perfect foundation for an espresso – smooth, full-bodied, and beautifully balanced.
This exceptional coffee comes from João Newton Reis Teixeira and his team, including Pedro and Milauem Gabarrou, who jointly manage Fazenda Pinhal in the Santo Antonio do Amporo region of Minas Gerais. The farm spans 1270 hectares and cultivates a wide variety of coffee, including Acaia, Catucai, Bourbon, and the lesser-known Uva variety, which contributes to the unique flavor profile of this batch. João is the sixth generation of coffee farmers, having been dedicated to managing the farm for over 20 years. Together with his family, they strive to blend traditional methods with modern techniques, continually pushing the boundaries of Brazilian specialty coffee.
Fazenda Pinhal is also a pioneer in sustainability. In 2019, it was recognized as the most sustainable farm in Brazil, thanks to a complete transition to solar energy and an eco-friendly approach to coffee processing. The natural method used for processing this coffee allows the cherries to slowly dry under the sun, maximizing their sweetness and developing complex flavors. The result is a rich, smooth, and creamy coffee that combines chocolate decadence, hazelnut elegance, and a refreshing citrus zing. If you're looking for an espresso that will win you over with its smoothness and harmony, Mocha Mousse is a choice that will never disappoint.
