Brazil Fazenda Boa Vista Fairview Farm (Bahia)
Brazil is the largest coffee producer in the world, accounting for about 33% of the total output, but because Brazil's terrain is relatively flat and there are few high-altitude mountain forests, most coffee is grown in low-altitude non-volcanic soil areas, and there are not too many trees to shade. As a result, the growth rate of beans is too fast, but the density of coffee does not change much, but the coffee density does not change much. In addition, the coffee with large-scale harvest maturity gap is bagged together. All these make the quality of Brazilian beans not particularly outstanding.
After 2000, because the COE International Coffee Cup Test was held, high prices gave coffee farmers an incentive to strive to produce high-quality coffee. Coffee beans produced at higher elevations in the south were well appreciated, mainly on the farms around the Minas platform, such as Sirado in the west of Minas and Matas in the east, Bashiya in the north or small farms in the south. Minas has almost become synonymous with fine beans in Brazil. In recent years, due to the surging winds and clouds of treatment, washed bean honey to treat sunburned beans, Brazilian beans can also be seen to make up for the lack of acidity of Brazilian beans, especially honey-treated beans and sun-dried beans perform best, which will make the fruit flavor increase the soil flavor, reduce the acidity and make the quality brighter and cleaner.
Fazenda Boa Vista Fairview Farm is located in the eastern Brazilian province of Bahia Bathia, which produces good Brazilian beans. Fairview Farm is a favorite Brazilian bean used by European bean merchants. The Alberto Franklin Pereira Ferraz family has been running the farm for 35 years. The estate is 1350 meters above sea level on the fertile plateau south of Bashiya, with an average annual temperature of 22 degrees, harvesting fully ripe red coffee cherries by hand.
