Santa Ines

From producer Roberto Queiroz do Nascimento, owner of Fazenda São Bernardo, a farm in Brazil's Minas Gerais region. The farm, established in 1961, spans a total of 291 hectares of which 213 are planted in Red Catuai, Yellow Bourbon, Mundo Novo, Topázio, and Rubi.  After harvesting, cherries are moved to a cement patio where they are dried for an average of 15 days while being moved 6 times per day.  Once the coffee is dried, it is moved to a mechanical coffee dryer to finish, ensuring an even and balanced resting moisture content.
