Farm info:

The rattlesnake, or Cascavel in Portuguese, often has a fearsome reputation due to its defensive nature. However, it plays a vital role in the coffee ecosystem by controlling pests that can damage coffee tree roots and irrigation systems. This beautiful creature, with its striking markings, helps maintain the health of coffee fields.

Cascavel Vermelha (Red Rattlesnake) embodies this balance of beauty and strength. With notes of red fruit and a refined sweetness

Brazilian coffee farms are known for their large scale and mechanised harvesting, driven by the flat landscape and higher labour costs. Modern mechanical harvesters now allow for the selective picking of fully ripe cherries, significantly improving cup quality. In more challenging terrain, a combination of manual and mechanised harvesting, using tools like the derricadeira, is employed to gently collect ripe cherries.

This coffee's fruity profile is predominantly derived from Natural processing, with some Pulped Natural contributions. Natural lots are sun-dried on large patios, while Pulped Natural cherries are pulped and then dried on patios, both carefully raked and turned for an even, clean cup.

Experience the unique flavour and quality of Cascavel Vermelha, where tradition and technology unite.
