An anoxic natural process Red Bourbon from Brazil’s renowned Designation of Origin, Cerrado Mineiro. Part of the wider estate Quintas de Guimarães, run by Beatriz Aparecida de Souza Guimarães, Fazenda Atriz is a plot affectionately named after Beatriz. As the fifth generation of her family to run the estate, Beatriz has only continued to lead their award-winning quality and guarantee "the prosperity of their 150-year legacy and perpetuate their pioneering spirit through conscious growth."
The "anoxic" processing means the coffee is fermented in a low oxygen environment. In this instance, after harvesting the coffee cherries are placed in sealed stainless steel tanks and allowed to ferment in the sealed environment before they are pulped to remove the seeds (or "beans") then packed.
We're thrilled to share this exciting example of what bold, fruity profiles Brazilian coffees can offer and especially to have sourced it through the wonderful team at Bossa Coffee, run by Bruna and Emma. Originally importing coffee to the UK directly from Bruna's family farm and their neighbours, Bossa is now working with fantastic producers across Brazil that emphasise sustainable farming practice and genuine connection between customers and origin with their genuine, relational approach. We're extremely happy to support them on their journey and share this as part of Mutual.
