Danilo Barbosa - Natural - Brazil (Espresso Roast)

Fazenda Cachoeira is one of the most distinguished farms within Brazil’s Cerrado Mineiro, the country’s first protected Designation of Origin for coffee. The land traces back to Danilo Barbosa’s family heritage and has been developed over generations into a structured, quality-driven coffee estate. Through disciplined reinvestment and long-term vision, the farm evolved into a benchmark origin within the region. Located between 1,045 and 1,100 meters above sea level, Cachoeira benefits from the Cerrado’s defined seasons — warm, wet summers and dry winters — supporting uniform maturation and controlled drying. The farm cultivates varieties such as Red Catuaí and Yellow Catuaí, using natural and controlled fermentation methods to enhance terroir expression. In 2021, Fazenda Cachoeira won the Brazil Cup of Excellence Championship, with a natural Yellow Catuaí lot scoring above 90.5 points, placing the farm among Brazil’s top specialty producers. Beyond awards, Cachoeira reflects structured management, environmental preservation and a commitment to consistent specialty-grade production. Fazenda Cachoeira represents generational discipline, technical precision and the proven capability of Brazilian coffee at the highest level. Danilo Barbosa’s prowess in coffee processing is seen in this lot’s fruit forward and clean profile. This natural Catuai lot is packed with red fruits such as grapes with raisin like dried fruit finish and caramel sweetness lingering throughout. We’re excited to offer this beautiful coffee in all our bars in the coming weeks.
