Brazil Fazenda 7 Cachoeiras

As the largest producer of coffee in the world, Brazil is famed for quantity over quality and has huge influence over the global value of all coffee on the commercial market. If Brazil exceeds expected production levels, the coffee market can bottom out with the fear of supply exceeding demand, causing unsustainable prices for producers on the other side of the world. With such a focus on volume, it can be difficult to find a partner driven to process specialty grade beans. However, after learning more about Marcelo Brito and his mission it was clear that the values and principles we hold dear are shared with those that have gone on to shape Fazenda 7 Cachoeiras. A mission that is underpinned by a desire to produce high quality specialty coffees, whilst respecting and conserving the environment and providing better working conditions for the employee’s responsible for its production.

This Coffee's Story

We are excited to announce that this year’s Brazilian offering will be coming to us from Marcelo Brito’s family farm in Sul De Minas. Fazenda 7 Cachoeiras (meaning 7 waterfalls) is, funnily enough, named after the 7 waterfalls found in the surrounding area that borders the expansive 800ha farm. Marcelo saw great potential in the coffee industry and seized the chance to purchase 7 Cachoeiras back in 2000, seeing it as an amazing business opportunity for himself and his son Andre. Under the Brito’s management this amazing fazenda has truly become a model of sustainable management and production over the past 22 years.

After learning more about Marcelo and his mission it is clear that the values and principles we hold dear are shared with those that have gone on to shape Fazenda 7 Cachoeiras. A mission that is underpinned by a desire to produce high quality specialty coffees, whilst respecting and conserving the environment and providing better working conditions for the employee’s responsible for it’s production.

Quality focused, modern farming practices have been introduced over the years and mechanisation for picking allows for consistent supply and efficient production. The farm is also carbon neutral, through carbon insetting, which is the process of offsetting it’s emissions on-site. An achievement reached through a combination of solar panels, using parchment to fire the dryers and going above the legal requirement of leaving 20% of land as wild ‘reserve’.

In addition, 7 Cachoeiras is both UTZ and Rainforest Alliance certified, though Marcelo and his family are fairly unique in that their own practices and standards have always gone way beyond what is required for certification. And as well as their commitment to the environment, there is a clear focus on social empowerment within the workforce on the estate. Employees have access to education and health care services, are paid more than double the minimum wage for their work and are even eligible to a bonus each month that can reach as high as 30-40% of this wage. The criteria of this bonus is based on positive impact at both work and in the home, ensuring an improvement to the lives of not just the staff, but their families too!

Adaptable Bliss

Brazil Fazenda 7 works for us as it’s so versatile - whether in Cappucino for breakfast, Americano or Espresso later. It makes a great cuppa. We switched to subscription some time back as we ensure we don’t run out. It’s a service that’s always on time and the quality is still great. And we just love North Star cafe. It’s special

Lovely tasting blend

My partner and I love this blend, definitely has the flavour notes listed. Only negative is that it was be ground too fine. I have a Breville Mini Barista, and after weighing out either 17g - 18g, the extraction run time ranges from 34-40ish seconds. This could be an issue with using a pressurised basket however. Definitely would recommend!

Carnival Brazil!

Honestly one of the best all round coffees. I can drink it on its own, or with milk and it is delicious, creamy and smooth. I even tried a cold brew with it, and again it was delicious. It is the James Milner of coffee.
