BRAZIL NATURAL ARABICA, SUL DE MINAS, NY 2, SCR 17/18, STRICTLY, SOFT, FINE CUP, SELO AZUL., SOFT, FINE CUP, SELO AZUL., SOFT, FINE CUP, SELO AZUL.

Brazil‘s coffee production represents about one-third of the entire coffee production

making it by far the biggest producer worldwide for the last 150 years. Both Arabica

and Robusta are grown, the latter known as Conillon, whereas Arabica clearly

dominates with a growing share of ca. 80%. The description „Sul de Minas“ refers to

the hilly region located in the south of Minas Gerais state, where this coffee is

coming from.

Coffees from Brazil are uniquely described in detail: NY 2 stands for “New York 2”

and refers to the maximum number of allowed defects according to the defect

count method of the New York stock exchange and is the highest grade. Screen

17/18 defines the bean size as being the bigger among the Brazilian grades. Strictly

soft, fine cup describes the cup profile - requiring a smooth, consistent and clean

cup. The most common processing method in Brazil, used for about 90% of the

Arabicas produced, is the dry process, also known as unwashed or natural.

The entire coffee cherry is first cleaned and then placed in the sun to dry in thin

layers on the patios or is dried in drying machines. Coffee plantations in Brazil often

cover immense areas of land, need hundreds of people to manage and operate

them and produce huge quantities of coffee.

We invite you to try Selo Azul, a L+B special brand. It holds a sweet and chocolatey

profile, ideal for espresso!
