Brasil Mata de Minas

About This Coffee

This specialty coffee originates from the Araponga micro-region within the Matas de Minas area of Brazil. Grown at altitudes between 950 and 1,400 meters, the coffee benefits from a unique microclimate and biodiversity. After harvest, the cherries undergo a natural fermentation process on raised drying beds, resulting in a cup with flavor notes of milk chocolate, apple, macadamia, and toffee. This coffee is suitable for various brewing methods.

Danelaw Coffee

David Jameson, a two time UK Coffee in Good Spirits Champion and qualified Q Arabica grader, founded Danelaw Coffee in Holmfirth, Yorkshire, in 2022. He brings over 18 years in the coffee industry, having coached the 2017 World Coffee in Good Spirits Champion, judged the World Barista Championship, and made coffee on five continents. The name references the area of Yorkshire and Lincolnshire settled by Vikings in the ninth century. David started roasting from a converted dining room before securing a Start Up Loan to move into premises with a six kilo roaster and professional packaging equipment. Sales doubled within a year. The roastery has accumulated over 60 Great Taste Award stars since 2017, earning Great Taste Producer status in under three years, and its Nott Fjodhr light roast decaf was rated the best UK decaf at the 2024 Great Taste Awards.
