IN THE CUP
As to be expected from high quality coffees from Brazil, in this cup you will experience a bold and sweet body reminiscent of brown sugar syrup and thanks to the anaerobic fermentation process, flavours of lemon and cherry burst forward in rich complexity.
STORY BEHIND THE CUP
3 Pines Farm is a coffee farm located in the Mantiqueira de Minas region of Brazil. The farm, run by Leda Silva, covers 32 hectares, with 6 hectares planted with Red Catuai, Arara, and Acauã varieties at elevations of 1000 to 1350 meters. Leda, a third-generation coffee farmer, began her journey alongside her parents and later established 3 Pines Farm with her husband. Seeking to improve productivity and quality, Leda connected with AMECAFE Mantiqueira, an organization supporting women producers, and made significant improvements on her farm, focusing on sustainability.
At 3 Pines Farm, Leda’s family cultivates coffee with love, respect, and care. They manually harvest the coffee and use machinery for on-site processing. In 2023, the farm's dedication to quality was recognized when it won first place in the "Cafebras" competition.
