About the Grower

About Grower

Marco Antonio da Silva

Since 2017, our journey in coffee began with the acquisition of Santo Inácio and Buritis farms, located in a privileged region at 1,080m altitude, ideal for high-quality coffees. We started the certification process for the farms, prioritizing sustainable management and respect for the environment. In 2021, we expanded our operations with Buriti and Arcos farms, adjacent to Santo Inácio. We have received awards for our quality, such as 3rd place for the best fermented coffee and 2nd place for natural coffee in our cooperative. We have invested in sustainability, with water reservoirs supplied by rainwater collection, a photovoltaic plant for self-sufficient energy, and the "Attitude Nursery" project in partnership with our cooperative for environmental preservation. We contribute to the community with donations of school kits and train our employees to ensure quality at all stages, from crop management to grain processing. Our commitment is to continue evolving and consolidating our presence in the specialty coffee market, offering a high-quality product resulting from our love and passion for what we do.

About

Region

The Cerrado Mineiro region, located in northwest of Minas Gerais State is a world-recognized, high-quality coffee producing origin and became the first Protected Geographical Indication in Brazil in 2005, with full Designation of Origin in 2013.

A strong characteristic of this region is its well-defined seasons - a hot, wet summer followed by a pleasantly dry winter. The dry climate during harvest eliminates potential problems with humidity during the drying process.

Minas Gerais is Brazil’s principal agricultural state, and the Cerrado is home to many of the country’s celebrated coffee estates, with expertise in planting, harvesting, drying, and sorting. We love Cerrado coffees for their big body, rich chocolate notes, and velvety texture when pulled as espresso.

Today, the area’s 4,500 farmers produce a combined average of 6 million bags per harvest, with an average of 35 bags per hectare. To reach these production levels, producers had to first adapt to the region’s conditions. Coffee farmers first arrived in Cerrado in the 1970’s, after being pushed out of the state of Parana by frost and out of the state of São Paulo by nematodes.

They found the soil in Cerrado to be very acidic, which they rectified with the application of calcium to create the healthy soils they enjoy today. Cerrado coffee farms are cultivated in areas with elevations varying between 800 and 1,300 meters above sea level and are known for consistently producing high quality coffees with a repeatable profile. Independent of farm size, the spirit of professionalism is present throughout Cerrado’s coffee producers.

Entrepreneurialism is part of farmers’ DNA, and many producers are second or third generation growers who also hold degrees in agronomic engineering, business management, and administration. While each family narrative is different, Cerrado is characterized by an enterprising attitude.
