About Brazilian Coffee

In the southeastern region of Minas Gerais, the coffee produced boasts a smooth and chocolatey flavor profile. The beans grown in this region are known for their medium acidity, full body, and notes of nuts and caramel. Minas Gerais follows a traditional harvesting method known as "stripping" or "strip picking," where all the cherries of the coffee plant are collected at once. This technique allows for efficiency and consistency in the harvesting process. Locals in Minas Gerais often enjoy their coffee alongside a traditional cheesebread called "pão de queijo," adding a savory touch to their coffee experience.

As we move to the northeastern region of Bahia, the coffee flavor profile becomes more exotic and fruity. The beans from Bahia exhibit a mild acidity with notes of citrus, berries, and a subtle sweetness. The traditional harvesting method in Bahia involves selective picking, ensuring only the ripest cherries are collected. Roasting techniques in Bahia can vary, with lighter roasts highlighting the coffee's bright and fruity notes. Locals in Bahia often savor their coffee with a popular local sweet called "cocada," a delicious coconut-based treat that perfectly complements the coffee's flavors.

Journeying to the south of Brazil, we arrive in the region of Paraná, known for its coffee with a smooth and balanced flavor profile. The beans from this region exhibit a low acidity, medium body, and notes of milk chocolate and nuts. The traditional harvesting method in Paraná involves a combination of strip picking and selective picking, ensuring the ripest cherries are collected. The coffee is often roasted to a medium-dark level, allowing the rich flavors to develop fully. Locals in Paraná often enjoy a piece of "cuca," a traditional coffee cake, alongside their cup of coffee.

As we explore the landscapes of Brazil, we're met with a diverse range of flora, fauna, and climate. The lush Amazon rainforest, the golden beaches of Rio de Janeiro, and the colorful Pantanal wetlands all contribute to Brazil's unparalleled biodiversity. The country's landscapes are home to vibrant orchids, towering palm trees, and a myriad of unique animal species, including the vibrant macaws, capybaras, and playful monkeys.
