Introduction to the manor

Fazenda S ã o Silvestre has been managed by the Andrade brothers since 1991. It is located in the Cerrado Mineiro area of the northern state of Minas Gerais, bordering Bahia.

The volcanic soil of the farm provides ideal conditions for growing the main varieties of the farm, mainly Icat ú, bourbon and iron pickup. Coffee is ripe and harvested and half-sun is used: after the coffee cherries are washed, the pectin is left on the beans when they are dry. Depending on the climatic conditions, the coffee can be completely dried or completed in two stages, initially drying the coffee beans so that the moisture content is reduced to about 20%, and then done in a mechanical dryer to remove the excess water content and keep the water content at 12%.

After drying, the coffee is stored in a silo and protected by parchment or seed shell. After ripening, the coffee husks are crushed and classified before export. There is a BSCA standard cup testing laboratory on the farm, where physical and sensory analysis is carried out by qualified cup testers.

Paranaiba's Fazenda Capim Branco (Cerrado Mineiro) is the first farm of the Andrader family; however, since the 1970s, families have been very active in building new farms to expand their acreage, all of which are in line with their concept of producing the highest quality coffee. During this expansion, the family acquired Shengye Manor.
