BRAZIL SANTA ROSA – ESPRESSO ROAST

Brazil Fazenda Santa Rosa – Espresso Roast

Bright, Citrus-Forward Brazilian Espresso for Everyday Espresso Brewing

Espresso Fazenda Santa Rosa is grown in Sul de Minas, Brazil, roasted here to bring out its liveliest character as an espresso. Naturally (dry) processed from a single estate, it delivers a bright, layered shot with citrus character.

This lot is Rainforest Alliance Certified, reflecting independently verified responsible farming practices on the estate.

Ideal if you enjoy:

• A brighter, more complex espresso
• Citrus-forward shots with more liveliness than our usual Brazilians
• Espresso drinkers who want something more lively than a classic low-acid shot

A bright, layered shot with citrus up front and a clean finish.

How to Brew

Best methods: Espresso machine, bean-to-cup, moka pot

Water temperature: 92–94°C

Ratio: Start at 1:2 and adjust to taste

Milk drinks: Works best as a straight shot or short milk drink — the citrus brightness fades more in larger milk volumes than a classic low-acid Brazilian.

Why This Coffee Stands Out

• Single estate, fully traceable — Sul de Minas, Brazil
• Rainforest Alliance Certified — independently verified responsible farming
• Brighter, more complex profile than our usual Brazilian coffees — citrus-forward and lively
• 2024/25 harvest — fresh crop, roasted to order

About Rainforest Alliance Certification

Rainforest Alliance certification verifies that a farm meets independently audited standards for environmental protection, social equity and economic resilience. Fazenda Santa Rosa's certification means this lot was grown under those verified practices.

Who This Coffee Is (and Isn't) For

Perfect for:

• Anyone who wants a brighter, more layered everyday espresso
• Citrus-forward flavour lovers
• Those who want to support Rainforest Alliance-certified farming

Not ideal if:

• You're looking for a low-acid, mellow shot for milk drinks (try our Workout Blend or Uganda Bulaago espresso instead)
