This Brazilian coffee comes from the Sul de Minas region in Minas Gerais, grown at an altitude exceeding 1,100 meters. It is a natural processed coffee made from Mundo, Catuai, and Acaya varieties, harvested between November and December. The coffee has earned 2 gold stars from the Guild of Fine Food, recognized for its delightfully nutty aroma, smooth body with low acidity, and marked but pleasant bitterness. Rich chocolate flavors dominate the palate with subtle nutty undertones, delivering a well-balanced and complex cup.
Aidy founded 47 Degrees in Derbyshire, with the company registered in 2014 and operations launching after he was made redundant in 2017.
