Origin and Plantation:

This coffee comes from the mountainous region of Mantiqueira, located in the southern state of Minas in Brazil. Mantiqueira means "the region where the clouds are lying". This location and the inherent climatic conditions are ideal for cultivating coffee. With an average temperature of 18°C and an average annual rainfall of 1,850 mm per year this region is famous for its mineral springs. Right in the centre of this region the farm Santa Lucia can be found, which produces highest quality coffees and was awarded with the national Cup of Excellence in 2009.
