Brazil - Mundo Novo

Our friends at Los Volcanes return to our menu with another lovely Brazilian coffee produced in collaboration with Fazenda Rio Brilhante. This lot is a single-variety selection of Mundo Novo, offering a beautiful representation of a more classic Brazilian flavor profile.

This is an excellent choice for both filter coffee and espresso, enjoyed with milk or without. Expect a full-bodied coffee with comforting notes of milk chocolate, hazelnut, almond, caramel, pear, and raspberry.

This offering from Partners Coffee showcases the Mundo Novo varietal, a natural hybrid of Typica and Bourbon that has long been a cornerstone of Brazilian coffee production. Cultivated by Fazenda Rio Brilhante in the Brazil region, this lot highlights the classic profile often associated with the country’s output. While Brazilian coffees are frequently celebrated for their approachable, nutty, and chocolate-forward foundations, this specific selection introduces a nuanced layer of fruit-toned acidity.

When evaluating such profiles, tasters often reference the flavor wheel to categorize the interplay between deep, confectionary sweetness and brighter, orchard-fruit characteristics. In this cup, the presence of milk chocolate, hazelnut, almond, and caramel provides a structured, comforting base, while notes of pear and raspberry offer a delicate, refreshing finish. It serves as a compelling example of how traditional varietals can balance rich, dessert-like qualities with subtle, vibrant complexity.
