Brazil Dry Process Minas Gerais Pedra Branca
Pedra Branca is a processing facility serving small producers in Brazil (roughly 30 hectares on average, which is small for Brazil). Many of these farmers still manual-pick their coffee cherry, uncommon for Brazil but a plus for quality. The result is a big-bodied coffee with strong base notes of bittersweet chocolate, almonds and walnuts, and caramelized sugars. These qualities make it a great choice for single-origin espresso or as a blend base. And for those who like big-bodied, low-complexity drip coffee, you can’t do much better.
