FrontStreet Coffee - Introduction to Brazilian Coffee
Brazil's annual coffee production accounts for about one-third of the global total (making it the world's largest coffee producer and exporter to date). In 2015, Brazil produced a total of 36.89 million bags of coffee (60kg per bag). Imagine how many cups of coffee that could make!
The country's coffee production and market trends have a direct impact on international coffee market prices. In other words, drought in Brazil will lead to rising global coffee prices. Such high production has led many coffee enthusiasts to believe that Brazilian coffee focuses only on quantity rather than quality, making it difficult for Brazilian coffee producers to promote their beans.
Many businesses purchase commercial beans from Brazil for espresso blends, which is perfectly fine. However, it's important to know that Brazil also continuously produces many specialty coffee beans. Brazilian single-origin coffees are not only abundant in quantity but also high in quality with unique flavors. Typically, Brazilian coffee exhibits rich caramel and chocolate flavors, with noticeable sweetness and low acidity. This characteristic of low acidity sometimes leads people to underestimate its quality. But upon careful tasting, you'll be pleasantly surprised to discover how wonderful it truly is.
Most Brazilian coffee undergoes natural processing (dry method) or semi-washed processing. Natural processing refers to drying coffee cherries directly with their fruit skin and pulp intact after harvesting. This processing method enhances the body, sweetness, smoothness, and flavor diversity of coffee beans. Brazil's low rainfall and long sunshine hours make it suitable for natural processing methods.
