Santos - Brazil

The Cerrado is Brazil’s second largest eco-system after the Amazon Rainforest and is also threatened with imminent destruction, and with only 1.5 per cent of the Cerrado area protected it means that its survival depends on private conservation efforts such as in the case of this sustainable program. Like the Amazon, it is a biodiversity ‘hotspot’ that hosts an astonishing diversity of species, many found nowhere else on earth.

Coming through the famous port of Santos in São Paulo, our beans travel a trade route over a century old in South American coffee production, fitting for its tradition as a naturally processed coffee in Brazil – dried inside the fruit, where the coffee cherry’s natural sugars
intertwine with the bean for a glimmer of ripe sweetness without sharp acidity in the final cup.

We work with with DR Wakefield to source this amazing coffee directly from the farms.
