This coffee is a Yellow Catucaí variety from Fazenda Mio in Monte Santo de Minas, Brazil, grown at an altitude of 900 to 1000 meters. It undergoes a unique aerated fermentation process, combining anaerobic and aerobic environments, followed by patio and dehumidifier drying. This process results in a complex flavor profile with notes of blood orange, macadamia, and baked strawberry. The coffee is characterized by a fruity and winey profile with a full body, high sweetness, and a round mouthfeel.
