« A sweet bouquet marked by notes of chocolate and praline. In the cup, the coffee's sweetness is confirmed with aromas that plunge us into the world of patisserie. The body is controlled and the profile well-balanced. A beautiful, sweet length. »

ABOUT
Bearing this in mind, we wanted to offer a Brazilian coffee that would allow roasters to adopt a philosophy of seasonal coffee rotation, for fresh and high-quality coffees all year round. The relative humidity of the Espirito Santo region makes it very difficult to produce natural coffees, which is why there are mostly semi-washed and honey coffees.
This semi-washed coffee was named "Muriqui" in homage to the little monkey typical of the region. The way it is prepared and the high altitude, characteristic of Espirito Santo, give this Muriqui a tangy profile with a hint of white fruit.
THE TERROIR OF CASTELO
Castelo is a terroir located in the region of Espirito Santo.
Although the state of Espirito is one of the smallest in Brazil, it is known for its mosaic of landscapes, from the rugged mountains to the Atlantic coastal regions. Known for its historic robusta production, Espirito Santo is a new player in specialty coffee production. A small appellation for Brazil, Espirito Santo is made up of small estates of 5 to 20 hectares located on steep mountains. Very mountainous terroir, the harvests are 100% manual with a high percentage of selective sorting. Rich in native forests with a remarkable biodiversity, the region wishes to preserve the quality of its territory and its remarkable landscapes punctuated by the Atlantic coast and steep mountains. Thus, Espirito Santo has made it compulsory for all producers, large and small, to preserve at least 20% of each property in forest.
