Brazil
Fazenda Guariroba, Campo das Vertentes, Minas Gerais
This fantastic microlot was grown at Fazenda Guariroba. The coffee farm is located in the Campo das Vertentes region in the state of Minas Gerais in south-eastern Brazil, which is renowned for coffee cultivation. Gabriel Vieira runs his farm at an altitude of more than 1,200 meters, where his wife Elisa Lamounier helps him. The coffee is the champion of its region and is carefully produced on the Cup of Excellence Farm. It is marked with a special seal to highlight the high quality standards in the cultivation and harvesting of coffees within the region. The farm also has a long tradition, with coffee being grown there as early as the 19th century. It is a beautiful area with excellent terroir, fertile soils and the perfect climate for growing some of the best coffees in Brazil. No wonder the whole world is interested in the aromas that are created here.

Description
Espresso Recipe
Guariroba Espresso
Our second release from Fazenda Guariroba is here – an exceptional Natural Anaerobic of the Yellow Catuai variety, grown by Gabriel Vieira in the heart of Brazil.

As an espresso roast, this coffee reveals a new aromatic dimension with notes of dark bittersweet chocolate, orange zest and marmalade, and a vibrant bitterness reminiscent of a Negroni cocktail – sweet, bitter, and boldly expressive.

With a cupping score of 88 points, this coffee ranks among the very best – a rare gem that will delight coffee lovers in both filter and espresso preparations.
Natural Anaeorbic
Gabriel Vieira's coffee farm is located in the highlands of the Campo das Vertentes region with nutrient-rich soil and good temperature conditions. The Brazilian coffee farmer processes coffee using his own fermentation infrastructure. The coffee cherries are selectively hand-picked – and fermented as Natural Anaeorbic (76h in fermentation tanks, 30 days on African beds). This type of fermentation process influences the taste of the coffee and we obtain very expressive flavors.
Cup of Excellence
Fazenda Guariroba bears the Cup of Excellence seal. A coffee farm cannot be awarded higher than this, which means absolute top quality. The Alliance For Coffee Excellence organizes the competition in the most important coffee-growing countries in Africa, South and Central America. Before a coffee is allowed to carry the seal, it has to convince many palates. A national jury is appointed for each country. It consists of employees of the national coffee organizations, exporters and Q-graders. The competition takes place over several rounds and 5 cups of each coffee are cupped, i.e. 5 samples are tasted side by side. This means that only the best win, around 20-30 coffees per country from several hundred entries.

Important note for ground coffee:
Please note that we cannot offer a universal grind for ground coffee for use in portafilter machines. The optimum grind must be individually adjusted to the respective machine, as factors such as sieve size, pump and brewing pressure as well as temperature vary greatly depending on the model. We therefore always recommend buying whole beans and adjusting the grind yourself to suit your machine.

Important note on returns:
Ground coffee cannot be exchanged as it is only ground at the customer’s request. Thank you for your understanding.

Sustainable cultivation and quality awareness
As with wine, the origin, cultivation and careful harvesting of coffee form the basis for a speciality coffee. We only use ripe and hand-picked 100% Arabica coffee beans for our coffees, as the painstaking manual harvest is an essential quality criterion. Our highland coffees are natural products and are grown in shady forest gardens in an environmentally friendly way. This preserves the biodiversity of the growing region. The coffee cherries can ripen slowly at cool altitudes with nourishing and fertile soil conditions. Under these optimal climatic conditions near the equator, the coffee plants have more time to develop their characteristic and fruity flavours.  
Roasted fresh by hand
All Röststätte coffees are gently roasted by hand in Berlin so that the natural flavours can fully develop without any unwanted acidity. For a distinctive body and a versatile flavour profile in the cup, we want to emphasise and optimally process the special features of the respective variety, farm and origin of the coffee with our roasting. The aim is therefore to exploit the full potential of the green coffee through our roasting method in order to emphasise the valuable work of the producers in the countries where the coffee is grown. These are our quality principles – from source to the final cup.
