A natural processed coffee from Wanderley Franco's farm Morada dos Pássaros in Campestre, Sul de Minas, Brazil. The farm is located at 1120 meters altitude with rich volcanic soil. The coffee is Catuaí variety and undergoes natural processing with harvest from June to September. The farm is 45 hectares and has been part of the Especialíssimo program by SMC and Cooxupé since 2016. Described as one of the fruitiest natural coffees from Brazil with fig jam connotations and a clean, creamy mouthfeel reminiscent of milk chocolate. Sourced through Nordic Approach.
Quo Coffee Roasters was founded in late 2024 in Skarhamn, Sweden, by Christian Gullbrandsson, Sarah Gerlam Madura, and Hayden Moyle, a team with more than 40 years of combined specialty coffee experience. The roastery sources 100 percent specialty grade coffee through direct trade, and became the first Nordic partner in Clean Ocean's sail freight initiative, shipping green coffee by sailboat to reduce its carbon footprint. Quo roasts to accentuate each bean's natural character, treating transparency and sustainability as foundational commitments rather than afterthoughts. The company's name is a challenge to the status quo, reflecting its founders' belief that the specialty coffee industry can do better on equity and environmental impact.
