SPECIALTY COFFEE BRAZIL – SAMBA (NATURAL)

Brazil Samba Specialty Coffee – Project Origin

Discover the subtle elegance of a single-origin coffee from the heart of Brazil. Grown in the renowned Carmo de Minas region, this coffee is the result of the passion and expertise of local farmers. Carefully selected by Project Origin, a top coffee curator, in partnership with Artisan Green Bean.

Brazil is the first country that Project Origin’s founder, Saša Šestić, travelled to in order to directly source specialty green coffee. Together with Luiz Paulo Dias Pereira Filho, the founder of CarmoCoffees, they create coffees ahead of market trends.

Luiz Paulo Dias Pereira Filho is the eldest of four brothers in his family, and, together with his cousins, they are the fourth generation coffee producers who are rooted deep in the local coffee culture history of the Carmo de Minas region.

In 2007, Luiz Paulo and Jacques Pereira began CarmoCoffees, with the aim of exploring potential sustainability in coffee business. This goal has been possible due to Luiz Paulo’s studies, having graduated in Business Administration in Sao Lourenco prior to his pioneering project. Not only does CarmoCoffees pay attention to sustainable coffee business practices, but they also boost research on coffee, and operate in a direct trade channel with exporters. With a greater appreciation for coffee, many coffee growers and families in the area have been able to improve their lives through greater cultivation and processing understandings.
