Brazil Carmo Estate

Farm

Tulio Junquiera, who is the fifth generation of coffee growers in the family, has combined tradition with innovation to make Carmo Estate a sustainable farm dedicated to the production of specialty coffees. Tulio is also a former president of the Brazil Specialty Coffee Association (BSCA).

Carmo Estate’s mission is to produce exceptional coffee while providing its employees with a good quality of life and ensuring environmental sustainability. The farm is located near the town of Heliodora, in the southern state of Minas Gerais, a stunning region with mountainous terrain and ideal conditions to grow specialty coffees.

The milling facilities at Carmo Estate were developed particularly for the production of high quality specialty naturals and pulped naturals. This particular lot that we bought is 100% red catuai that went through a natural process. Only ripe cherries will be hand-picked and then dried in the sun on the farm’s spacious patios.
