Aracaçu Anaerobic Natural, Brazil
A bourbon in Brazilian soil? And with a little extra fermentation... this has many layers, big sweetness and a fruit forward attitude. Great for espresso and filter.

Carmen Lúcia Chaves de Brito, or ‘Ucha’, is a third generation coffee producer, who since taking over her family’s coffee farms at Fazendas Caxambu and Aracaçu has developed them to focus on producing award-winning specialty coffee and improving the farms’ environmental footprint.
“I was born and grew up on the farm, and lived here until I was 16 years old. That’s when I moved to Rio de Janeiro to study and built a career as an academic. After a long time, I left the beach to return to the countryside, getting back to the farm so that, together with my brothers and sister, I could carry on the legacy that our parents had left us. I didn’t want their life story and all their efforts to be in vain, and I made a point of taking over the farm’s management.”
In 2025 Fazendas Caxambu and Aracaçu won first place in the Natural category and received the Presidential Coffee title for a coffee scoring above 90.
