Brazil - Fazenda Dutra

Minas Gerais, Brazil's largest coffee region, produces 50% of the country's coffee.

The Dutra Family, who started planting coffee in the Matas de Minas region over 50 years ago, has grown the estate to nearly 2,500 acres with ten farms.

The family focuses on specialty grade, traceable lots for direct trade relationships.

They also prioritize sustainability, using solar energy for de-pulpers and mechanical dryers and preserving 750 acres of native forest.

The Dutra family also invests in a school and healthcare program for employees and their families.

Another great all-rounder coffee that holds up nicely with milk, especially as an espresso base.

Expect classic milk chocolate, malt and hazelnut notes in the cup.
