About This Coffee

This coffee is from Fazenda Palmital in the Serra São Pau S'Alho mountains in Cabo Verde district, southern Minas Gerais, Brazil. The farm is located at 950-1150 meters above sea level. It features Catuai and Mundo Novo varieties processed using the pulped natural (honey) method. Coffees are first dried on patio to 25% moisture content, then finished in mechanical driers to 11% moisture. The flavor profile includes milk chocolate, caramel, biscuit, hazelnut, walnut, praline, plum, and soft orange citrus. This is a classic Brazilian cup profile that is rich, full bodied, and consistent, particularly suited for espresso and milk-based drinks.

Coffee Central

Gavin Dow founded Coffee Central in Nottingham in 2003, initially as a San Remo equipment distributor and coffee wholesaler buying contract roasted coffee for the East Midlands. The shift to in house roasting came in 2011 with a 15kg Toper drum roaster, now expanded to twin 15kg drums plus a sample roaster. Head roaster Dean, a former chef in high end restaurant kitchens, joined in 2013 and brought a focus on quality and provenance. Green beans come through direct trade specialists DR Wakefield, Interamerican Coffees, and Falcon Specialty. The operation supplies espresso machines and freshly roasted coffee across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, and Leicestershire, with a constantly changing roster of single origin coffees alongside staple espresso blends.
