More about this coffee:

The origins of Fazenda da Lagoa date back to 1764, when the Portuguese crown donated the property to the so-called Jangada, the earliest ancestor of its agricultural director J. Paiva.

It is one of the oldest coffee farms in the region of the “Campo das Vertentes” and up to today has nearly maintained the same size.

The knowledge of how to produce one of Brazil’s most outstanding coffees has been passed down from generation to generation.

The farm focuses on the production of a unique unwashed natural coffee and a high quality semi-washed coffee.
