This  coffee is produced by our friend Gabriel Barreto. Gabriel is a coffee producer based in Minas Gerais in the southeastern part of Brazil. This lot is Natural processed Red Catuai variety and represents a modern take on the classic chocolatey sweet Brazilian cup profile. With careful attention to detail and know-how in fermentation techniques Gabriel and the team at Araucária farm have really done a great job in their short journey into coffee farming.

Together with his family Gabriel operates Casa Almeida Barreto. Producing coffee and exporting their own crop as well as handling the logistics and importing to European market Casa Almeida Barreto is truly an ambitious project. We are proud to have been part of this journey since their first export, exclusively buying all our Brazilian coffee from Gabriel. 

Expect balanced and comforting chocolate like cup with bright red fruit character and rather nice medium-low acidity. Overall this lot is more focused on balance and high sweetness which makes it ideal for espresso as well. Works really well with milk on espresso based drinks.
