Two farms, two ways of drying

The Yellow Catuai from Fazenda Sao Luiz in the Cerrado Mineiro, grown by Ana Cecilia at 1,450 masl, is pulped natural: the skin is removed and the seed dries with the sticky fruit layer left on. It cups as chocolate and hazelnut with raspberry and black currant underneath, and a smooth, medium body. The Red Catuai from Fazenda Recreio in Vale da Grama, grown by Diogo Dias at 1,290 masl, was a full natural, dried inside the whole cherry on the farm, and read rounder: caramel, milk chocolate and almond with a lingering chocolate finish. Both are Catuai; the drying decided the fruit.

Why Brazil is the chocolate end of our shelf

These are the lowest-grown coffees we roast, at 1,290 and 1,450 masl against 1,650 to 2,100 for our Colombian and Ecuadorian lots. Lower and warmer growing gives a denser, sweeter bean with gentler acidity, and the roast has more to work with and less fruit to lose. That is why the Brazil is the coffee we point to for espresso with milk and for anyone coming to specialty coffee from a supermarket bag: the flavours are familiar, and the farm, the variety and the roast date are not.
