Fazenda Santuàrio Sul Yirgacheffe

 

Fazenda Santuàrio Sul Yirgacheffe bridges the gap between Ethiopia and Brazil, resulting in a one-of-a-kind coffee experience. The point that Yirgacheffe is a famous Ethiopian heirloom variety that is seen in a new light here, grown in Brazil, got us hooked. Layers of blueberry, hazelnut, and bergamot can be expected in this unique blend that boasts a sweetness reminiscent of candied almonds, and a soft, peachy acidity. The mouthfeel is velvety and silky, while the medium body perfectly balances the sensory experience. The journey from cherry to cup is an art, and at the heart of this blend lies the 92-hour Anaerobic Natural process. In this unique method, the coffee cherries undergo a controlled fermentation in an oxygen-tight tank for nearly four days. This meticulous process unlocks a clean cup, showcasing the dedication to excellence.

The Fazenda Santuário Sul (the Sanctuary) is a project founded with the aim of being a pioneer of new trends. The coffees grown here reflect the tenacity of farmer Luiz Paulo and his partners. Today, in addition to traditional Brazilian varieties such as Yellow Bourbon, the farm has more than 30 exotic coffees, differentiated cultivation practices such as shaded fields and innovative practices that achieve new flavours.

Fazenda Santuário Sul is located next to one of the most traditional plantations in Carmo de Minas, Irmãs Pereira, where the coffee is processed. Great care is taken to closely monitor the varieties planted in order to obtain the best results from the climatic conditions of the region. Moreover, Luiz Paulo himself insists on harvesting the first tests of each of these coffees. For the next few years, Luiz Paulo has no doubt, “the goal is to lead the avant-garde of the market and offer better and better qualities!

In recent years, the farm has had a brilliant track record at the Cup of Excellence with different coffees.
