Brazil Mogiana
One Real 16oz. Pound
One of our favorite South American coffees is back! Coffee from the Mogiana region is among the best in the world. It's not too sharp, not too sweet, and not too earthy. It's just right.
Brazil Mogiana is full-bodied and low acid, making it the perfect cup for EVERYONE!
Brazil Mogiana is a completely pleasant cup of coffee. Our current offerings are Fine Cup and Strictly Soft, the highest cup categories in the Brazilian coffee grading system. This is truly the best of the best!
The coffee is creamy, smooth, and delicious. It is the traditional, full-bodied, sweet Brazilian coffee we all know and love.
It's so consistently sweet from start to finish: in the nose, it has the aroma of S'mores, sugarcane, and sugar cookies.
The coffee is full-bodied in the cup, and I detect notes of bakers' chocolate and caramelized sugar.
The finish lingers beautifully with the taste of cordial cherries, molasses, and dark chocolate.
Put this coffee on your radar.
Everyone in the shop is excited to have this one back again. If you haven't tried Brazilian coffee yet, you should give it a try. I highly recommend it. It's an incredible experience.

As the world's largest coffee producer, Brazilian lots often come from larger estates that use highly mechanized processing strategies to manage larger volumes.
The Mogiana region, split between the states of São Paulo and Minas Gerais, is the most renowned of the three major Brazilian growing regions. This region features rolling hills and uneven terrain, which lends itself to small to medium-sized farms.
Producers typically have farms that average 70 acres in size. Each producer cultivates and harvests their cherries, placing them on patios or mechanical dryers to precisely dry them to a moisture level of 11 percent.
Coffee is carefully stored until it is time for milling and export, which all takes place at the dry mill, where traceability and quality control are closely managed, ensuring that each producer is paid according to the quality of their coffee.
This lot's preparation is Fine Cup (FC) and Strictly Soft (SS), the highest cup category in the Brazilian coffee grading.
