Brazil Serra Dos Ciganos

This Reserve lot comes from the Serra dos Ciganos community in Caconde, a mountainous area on the border of São Paulo and Minas Gerais. Coffees here are grown between 1200 and 1350 meters, shaped by cool nights, steady rainfall, and a landscape rich in natural springs that feed the Rio Pardo watershed.

This coffee is produced in close partnership with João Hamilton dos Santos and surrounding family farms, many of whom are fourth generation producers in the region. Together, we have worked since 2011 to improve quality through careful lot separation, slow natural drying on raised beds, and shared processing at the Serra dos Ciganos wet mill.

Following last year’s fires, this harvest also reflects recovery and continued commitment to the land. Selected as a top regional lot, this Reserve coffee represents both the strength of the community and the long term collaboration that defines our work in Mogiana.
