Coffee was introduced to Brazil from French Guiana in the 1720s. Francisco de Melo Palheta, a Portuguese captain from Brazil, captured the heart of the governor's wife in Cayenne, the capital of French Guiana at that time, successfully bringing coffee seeds into Brazil. Since then, coffee quickly adapted in Brazil, spreading from the north to the southeastern state of São Paulo. By 1845, Brazilian coffee beans already accounted for 45% of the world's total coffee beans and became the main economic source of São Paulo state.

Opening the beans, you can still feel a piercing aroma. The dry fragrance after grinding is even more explosive, with extremely high intensity and very strong impact. That explosive brewing aroma has a slightly fermented quality. At the same time, you can feel a very sweet scent with gentle fruity notes. The overall aroma is incredibly rich and full.

The wet aroma after brewing emits a very comfortable and gentle fruity fragrance, accompanied by subtle sweetness. Although this is a Brazilian coffee in a light roast style, it cannot conceal that richness and solidness. However, this Brazilian coffee will make you feel that the flavor line is longer. The first half of the aroma carries very fresh fruity notes, followed by that solid feeling and very subtle sweetness, making you full of anticipation for the drink after brewing.

Because the beans are too fresh, I generally extend the initial bloom slightly to release as much gas as possible. Of course, freshly roasted beans will also have some flavor changes as the distance from the roasting date increases. This doesn't mean that freshly roasted beans cannot be consumed. On the contrary, the process of perceiving subtle changes over time is actually more interesting.

Finally, the overall brewing time is about 2 minutes. The entrance feeling becomes quite interesting and brings me some surprises. The first half of the entrance will feel the acidity brought by the fruity aroma, but it's a very gentle acidity. The fruity aroma is similar to peach juice, but not fresh peach juice - rather, it has a brewed quality. I find it very much like white peach and raspberry wine, accompanied by a very good sweetness.
