Brazilian Coffee Overview

In some estates of the Cerrado region in Minas Gerais state, southeastern Brazil, ancient Bourbon coffee and Yellow Catuai are cultivated. Although these estates come from the same region, each coffee has its own unique characteristics. Despite the diversity of coffee, Brazilian coffee suits popular tastes. As the largest coffee producer, various grades and types of coffee account for one-third of global consumption. While Brazil faces natural disasters several times higher than other regions, its plantable area is sufficient to compensate.

Primavera Estate Yellow Catuai

Minas Gerais State, Primavera Estate, Yellow Catuai Variety [Washed Processing Method] Flavor notes: Orange, peanut, genmaicha, nut, caramel aftertaste, with a sweet and sour sensation like fresh orange juice and a smooth texture, typical of natural Brazilian coffee flavor.

Yellow Catuai comes from a hybrid of Mundo Novo and Caturra, first cultivated in 1949 by Brazil's Instituto Agronomico de Campinas. Like Red Catuai, Yellow Catuai has extremely high disease resistance and is suitable for cultivation at high altitudes.

Brazilian Coffee Characteristics

Although there are many coffee varieties here, the industrial policy focuses on mass production and low cost, so there aren't many premium-grade coffees, but they are excellent choices for blending with other coffees.

Brazilian coffee has lower acidity, complementing the coffee's bittersweet taste. It enters the mouth extremely smoothly with a faint grassy aroma. The fragrance is slightly bitter, sweet and smooth, with a refreshing aftertaste. Brazilian coffee doesn't have particularly outstanding advantages, but it also has no obvious shortcomings. This taste is mild and smooth, with low acidity, moderate body, and a faint sweetness. All these gentle flavors blend together, and distinguishing them one by one is the best test for the taste buds.
