Over the past quarter-century, Brazilian farmers seeking access to the growing specialty coffee market abandoned the traditional natural process in favor of the newer pulp natural process in the name of increased consistency and quality. Recently, we have seen more quality-focused growers returning to the natural process and applying a new focus on quality to produce consistent and tasty results, like this Yellow Bourbon from the Dias Pereira family's award-winning Fazenda Sertão in Carmo de Minas.

How To Brew

We recommend starting with a 1:18 coffee-to-water ratio, which provides an excellent total extraction level and maximizes flavor pulled out of the ground coffee. For our single origin coffees we recommend a pour over method either on a Chemex, V60 or Kalita Wave on a 5 or 6 grind setting if you are ordering from intelligentsia.com.
