A little more about this coffee

Vila Boa is the farm inherited by Monica Borges de Sousa in 1988. It has grown over time through the commitment of her family, eventually focusing on growing specialty coffees. The plantation is surrounded by a thousand hectares of forest, so the cherries are picked by hand. Great care is taken in the use of water resources for agricultural processes. Today, Fazenda Vila Boa is owned by Monica Borges and her husband, the fourth generation of farmers.
The farm is located in Carmo da Mata, in the state of Minas Gerais. Its location has a humid subtropical climate, with a good average annual temperature, steady and healthy rainfall, ideal altitude, perfect topography, and healthy soil.
In addition to this unique terroir, Fazenda Vila Boa is committed to social and environmental causes. The plantation is one of the few in Brazil to be carbon positive. Certified by GRÖN, the carbon-neutral certification demonstrates that the farm sequesters more carbon (through plant life) than it emits (through harvesting and processing).
