FOR THE COFFEE

Fazenda Mumbuca is located in the fertile region of Campo das Vertentes, in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. Coffee here has been grown since the 19th century, when pioneers first brought the plant along with the mining convoys that passed through the area. The farm is owned by Marcelo Luiz Moreira Veneroso, who after a successful corporate career chose to return to his family's agricultural roots. With his son Henrique by his side, Marcelo has transformed Fazenda Mumbuca into a place where tradition, innovation, and sustainability come together. Today, the farm spans 370 hectares, with 126 planted in coffee and 101 dedicated to preserving biodiversity. It is also Rainforest Alliance certified, reflecting the family's commitment to both quality and responsible farming.

This particular lot is a Yellow Catuaí, naturally processed, harvested between May and August. The variety itself is a cross between Yellow Caturra and Mundo Novo, widely appreciated for its balance and productivity. After selective picking, the cherries are spread to dry under the Brazilian sun for 20–25 days, a method that allows the fruit to gently infuse the beans with its character. The result is a cup that combines the classic richness Brazil is known for with a touch of brightness and complexity that makes it stand out.

In the cup, you'll find a smooth and comforting profile of pecan and cocoa, flavors that feel warm and familiar, anchored in the tradition of Brazilian coffee. These are lifted by a subtle cherry sweetness and just a hint of citrus zest, giving the coffee a pleasant liveliness without overwhelming its gentle character. It is a coffee that feels like home — rich, balanced, and endlessly drinkable — making it an ideal representation of our Comfort Collection.

SIP, FLAVOR, REAPEAT!

Our coffee roasting adventure began in 2021, when we decided to “roast things ourselves” for the Bulgarian Aeropress Championship. What started with Roest grew into something much more serious (and delicious). In 2024, we upgraded to the Stronghold S7 Pro – because if we’re going to make magic, let’s make it with the best coffee roaster. Every coffee in our selection passes the “Wow!” test on the cupping table and must score at least 2 points to make the team (i.e. be liked by at least two of our team of three). Head roaster Hristo is the man behind every roasted bean – a perfectionist who won’t approve a profile until the cup is magical. Every customer is a tester whose feedback we can’t wait to read and hear so we can get better.
