Brasil Fazenda Sertão - 100 Years Reserva
A Century of Heritage
Fazenda Sertão is home to one of Brazil's most precious coffee treasures: Red Bourbon trees that have been producing exceptional cherries for over 100 years. These ancient trees, carefully preserved by the Pereira family, represent a living connection to Brazil's coffee heritage and produce beans of extraordinary complexity and character.
The Bourbon variety was introduced to Brazil around 1860, and from there rapidly spread north into other parts of South and Central America. The term Reserva means that this coffee comes from a specially selected lot; a reserve of the finest beans from the oldest, most prized trees on the estate. Just as a wine reserve represents the best of a vintage, the Reserva designation honors the exceptional quality and limited availability of coffee from these centennial trees. It’s a mark of distinction, reserved only for lots that demonstrate outstanding cup quality and unique terroir expression.
