Although Cerrado is one of Brazil's relatively new coffee-growing regions, it has quickly risen to earn a reputation for high quality specialty coffee. Cerrado coffee offers coffee roasters consistency. The land is kept balanced and fertile by welldefined wet and dry seasons and abundant sunlight. Coupled with advanced farming practices and the entrepreneurial spirit from Cerrado's coffee producers, the region has become renowned. 

Most medium-to-large-sized farms span anywhere between a few hundred acres to massive powerhouse estates. Cerrado lies in the southwest of Minas Gerais. The land is relatively flat, with altitudes ranging from 900 to 1250 meters above sea level. The level land allows farmers to practice mechanical harvesting that is out of reach for coffee farms on steep hills. 

The result is a consistent profile that leans on the natural chocolate and nutty flavors that make Brazil the largest coffee producer in the world.
