Peet's Brazil Minas Naturais
Naturally processed coffee cherries from the Minas Gerais regionare sweetened by the Brazilian sun.
FlavorNotes:Â Smooth, full bodiedand sun-dried sweet with natural notes of hazelnut.Â
Naturais is Brazilian Portuguese fornatural, the bean preparation method we most prefer in this part of the world.It takes sun, and plenty of it, to dry all the way through the skin and sweetpulp of the coffee fruit to the seeds inside. This is done on well-tendedpatios, where whole cherries are raked continuously, and also on the trees,where a portion of the pickings are left to dry on the branch.
For the record, all of our favorite farms alsoproduce coffees by the ?pulped natural? method, which involves removing theskin and some of the fruit pulp from the outset, and the ?washed? method, whichfully removes it, as is the standard in countries like Costa Rica. In Brazil,with lower altitudes and less acidity, we find the typical washed coffee to besomewhat bland.
Brazil Minas Naturais is anything but, makingmaximal effect of slow sun drying for a thoroughly sweet cup with mild fruitand caramel notes, unctuous hazelnut and smooth, full body. We think theseflavors are exhibited best in a medium roast style, and they shine in oursingle cups.
