Espresso Cerrado

Story, Origin & Processing: Fazenda San Martin is located in midst of the savanna of Central Brazil in the federal state Minas Gerais close to the district Patrocinio. It covers 35ha and is being operated by Senhor Nelson Rivellini, who continues a more than 100 year old family tradition. At that time the coffee cultivation started with his grandfather, who made his long way from Italy to Brazil with his family in order to build up first plantations in Sao Paulo and later on in Paraná. Beside the traditional processing method Fazenda San Martin also uses the so called „eco-washed“ or semi washed method. Being also a member in the association of the Cerrado coffee farmers they guarantee for high quality standards and origin of the coffee following sustainable practices. Those are being proven through the “tag” certification which makes it possible to trace back every single bag. Every bag gets a label with a number that verifies the exact origin of the coffee through a search option on the Internet containing comprehensive information about the respective Fazenda.
