Sertaozinho is a Brazilian coffee from the mountains of Minas Gerais, produced by a community of over 100 smallholders. This Yellow Catuai variety is naturally processed, with cherries dried on patios and shared driveways. The cup offers a comforting richness with flavor notes of cocoa, brown sugar, and plum. It is an approachable coffee with a balanced profile, reflecting the collaborative efforts of the local farming community.
Quarter Horse Coffee opened its first café in Oxford in 2012 before moving permanently to Birmingham in 2015, becoming the city's first specialty coffee roasters. The roastery sits in the Jewellery Quarter on Kenyon Street, where the entire roasting process is visible from the café floor. In 2023 they opened a dedicated site for production and training. Coffees are organised into three categories: Stable for balanced profiles, Venture for floral and citrus forward lots, and Unique for experimental processes. All retail bags are fully home compostable and biodegradable.
