OUR INCREDIBLE PRODUCERS.
All of our unique coffees begin on the farms. These are the amazing individuals and families who grow, pick, process and help us select your coffees. We are so honored to work with them and truly cherish our longstanding, beautiful friendships!
Sérgio & Raquel Meirelles
Fazenda Capucho - Chapada de Minas - Capelinha, Minas Gerais
Sérgio and Raquel are like family---and that makes it so easy to work with them. With more than 20 coffee varieties on their two (2) farms, we can always expect some fascinating coffees every harvest.
Natália Brito & Jaguara Coffee
Various Farms - Sul de Minas - Três Corações, Minas Gerais
We visit Natália and the Jaguara team each year at their farms in the Mantiqueira mountains and their lab in Varginha. We are always looking for "crazy" coffees from them---whether it is through their unique fermentation processes or award-winning varieties.
Cristiene, Kátia and The Martins Family
Pico do Boné Farm - Matas de Minas - Araponga, Minas Gerais
Cristiene and her family have a jaw-dropping farm in the wondrous micro-climate of Araponga. It is so high that they literally have to "climb" up through the farm to hand-pick their beautifully red and yellow cherries. We love going to their farm and helping with the harvest---or simply meeting in Belo Horizonte to have a few beers.
Gláucia Maria and Lucas Lapa
Fazenda Preciosa - Chapada Diamantina - Piatã, Bahia
Gláucia and Lucas are young and bold producers in the mystical Chapada Diamantina region of Bahia. Their farm is relatively new, but their focus couldn't be sharper: with Gláucia's expertise in agronomy and agroforestry, her and her husband Lucas have already won some prestigious awards as they continue to be pioneers in specialty coffees grown within the native trees and plants on their Fazenda Preciosa.
The Peixoto Family
Sítio Santo Antônio - Campo Das Vertentes - Santo Antônio do Amparo, Minas Gerais
Our first coffee from Neide Peixoto and her family was in 2019. Several years later, we are working with her again and couldn't be more excited! Neide and her family produce award-winning coffees in the Campo Das Vertentes region and just this past year, we purchased a record three lots from their farm. Thrilled to be representing this beautiful family and their fantastic coffees!
Marco Antônio Chaves
Fazenda Caieira - Matas de Minas - Lajinha, Minas Gerais
Marco is one of our newer relationships and we are so thrilled to be featuring his incredible coffees. From the mountains of Lajinha, near the peaks of the Caparaó region, Marco takes great pride in his award-winning lots from his rainforest-protected farm. After snatching up some Cup of Excellence competitions, Marco's coffees are always unique and fruit-forward. Don't forget to ask about his best companion, Patusca 🐶!
