This Brazil Santos Baixada, a name that’s long been synonymous with high quality coffee, is well known for its sweet and smooth profile with a widespread appeal, medium body and creamy, mellow flavour. With the aid of newer, more selective picking technologies, there’s a growing number of farms that are increasingly concerned with – and able to deliver - cup quality. After harvest, coffee cherries are typically laid to dry in thin layers on patios. Under direct sunlight, cherry is carefully monitored and turned frequently.
