The Andrade brothers and their family have farmed Fazenda Capim Branco since 1901. It is located in the high, green Cerrado Mineiro region the north of Minas Gerais state, bordering with Bahia State. The farms elevation ranges from 1,100 to 1,250 metres above sea level, providing ideal conditions for coffee production due to the perfect balance of wet and dry seasons. Furthermore, the soils are volcanic and much of the farm is planted with the Yellow Catuaí varietal, which thrives in this environment.

Their attentive husbandry produces uniform blossoming and maturation, creating excellent conditions for processing the coffee using the natural method. In this case, ripe cherries are dried on the patio without having been pulped, producing a sweet, fruity coffee. Once the beans reach the desired humidity level, they are dry-milled to remove the dried pulp and parchment and then sorted and screened for export. Fazenda Capim Branco was the Andrade family’s first farm; however, since the 1970s the family has been very active in establishing new farms so as to expand their cultivation area, all aligned with their mission of producing coffee of the very highest quality.
