Fazenda Santa Ilda sits at 1,100 metres in the Cerrado, flat enough to harvest by machine and dry on patios. Yellow Catuaí gives sweetness and body rather than fruit.
It is our espresso base. We carry it past first crack to full city, dropping at 11:06 and 215 °C, so the chocolate and hazelnut come forward and the acidity rounds off under milk.
