Alto Da Serra

Our second release from Alto da Serra Farm is here and comes from near Manhuaçu, Brazil (which is about 300km east of Belo Horizonte). There Fabiano Diniz works with his family in the fourth generation on high quality specialty coffee. This particular Catucai Lot is grown at an altitude between 1150 and 1400 meters. In this season, the taste reminds us intensely of ripe plum, sweet chocolate cookies and brown sugar.

Processing & Fermentation

Fabiano Diniz's coffee farm is located in the highlands of the Matas de Minas region with nourishing soils and good temperature conditions. The Brazilian coffee farming family processes coffee with its own fermentation infrastructures. The coffee cherries are selectively hand-picked – and fermented as Pulped Natural. This type of fermentation process affects the taste of the coffee and we get very expressive flavors.

THE PULPED NATURAL PROCESS

All the skin and much of the pulp are removed in the Pulped Natural blending process (dry and wet processed) after harvest. They are then placed on dry plots or African Beds. This type of fermentation reduces the risk of defects. At the same time, there is still enough sugar to sweeten the coffee and give it a body. Careful drying after pulping is important. The Pulped Natural process is used primarily in Brazil.

Sustainable cultivation and quality awareness

Similar to wine, the origin, cultivation and careful harvesting also form the basis for a specialty coffee. For our coffees, we use only ripe and hand-picked 100% Arabica coffee beans, because the elaborate harvest by hand is an essential quality criterion. Our highland coffees are natural products and are grown in shady forest gardens in a nature-friendly way. This preserves the biodiversity in the growing region. The coffee cherries can ripen slowly at cool altitudes with nutritious and fertile soil conditions. The coffee plants have more time to develop their characteristic and fruity aromas under these optimal climatic conditions near the equator.

Freshly roasted by hand

All Röststätte coffees are gently roasted by hand in Berlin so that the natural flavors can fully develop without unwanted acids. For a pronounced body and a versatile flavor profile in the cup, we want to emphasize and optimally process the special features of the respective variety, farm and origin of the coffee with our roasting. The aim is to exploit the full potential of the green coffee through our roasting process in order to highlight the valuable work of the producers in the growing countries. These are our quality principles – from source to the final cup.
