Context

Produced by Leo and Rafael Carvalho Lima in the Sul de Minas region, the Brazil Piao Morro Grande represents a classic expression of Brazilian coffee production. This lot is prepared using the natural process, a method where the coffee cherry is dried intact around the bean, often contributing to a fuller body and enhanced sweetness in the final cup. Roasted by Glen Lyon Coffee, this selection highlights the approachable, comforting profile that defines the region’s output.

While natural-processed coffees are frequently noted for their heavier fruit characteristics, this specific offering leans into a profile described as sweet and chocolatey. For those looking to better understand the nuances of these descriptors, consulting a flavor wheel can be a helpful tool for identifying the specific chocolate notes present in the cup. This coffee serves as a reliable example of the consistent quality maintained by the Carvalho Lima family.
