Ivan and Rose dos Santos showcase a different side of Brazilian coffee with this exceptional Typica microlot. Known locally as Sumatra, the variety brings refined fruit, elegant sweetness, and remarkable clarity, creating a distinctive single origin coffee that shines as a filter brew.
The fruitiness really comes through in the cup—bright and refined, not at all what I expected from a Brazilian bean. It brewed clean with a gentle sweetness that lingered nicely, and the "Sumatra" nickname makes sense once you taste that unique character.
I brewed this as a pour-over this morning and the refined fruit came through so clearly, almost like a tea but with real body. That elegant sweetness lingers on the finish longer than I expected. Definitely a different side of Brazilian coffee than I'm used to.
The sweetness here is what got me — it’s refined, not cloying, and lingers nicely after each sip. Brewed it as a pour-over and the cup stayed elegant from hot to cool. Definitely a side of Brazilian coffee I hadn’t tried before.
