This coffee is from the Cerrado Mineiro region of Brazil, grown at altitudes between 800-1200 meters above sea level. The variety is Acaia Cerrado, processed using the pulped natural method. It is a medium roast with flavor notes of brown sugar and chocolate, with a full-bodied, nutty character. The Cerrado Mineiro region's coffee farming history began thriving in the 1970s when farmers relocated from Parana state, and today's producers represent several generations of established regional production knowledge.
Leif Sung An and Clifford Park founded Stereoscope Coffee in Los Angeles in 2013, driven by the belief that coffee is about more than tasting profiles and processing methods. They roast on a Probat P12 out of a warehouse in the Arts District, seeking out distinctive varieties and processing techniques that tell a story. Their approach uses the platform of specialty coffee to build fair, lasting relationships with producers while creating experiences that go beyond the cup. Stereoscope has been featured in the SCA Coffee Design Awards for its visual identity and packaging.
