About this Coffee
The Carvalho Dias Family planted their first trees in the 1890s. Ever since, the family has run the farm with a focus on producing some of Brazil’s finest specialty coffee. Hand-picked on a high altitude mountainside, the coffee cherries are slowly and evenly dried on the farm’s large patios. This process is what gives the coffee its sweet, chocolate-forward flavour and consistency. We share a sense of social responsibility with Cachoeira de Grama, and the idea that coffee can be a vehicle for positive change in the world. The farm is powered by its own hydroelectric plant, it collects and treats waste water and it goes out of its way to ensure that its workers, and their families, are well taken care of.
