This is a wonderful expression of Brazilian coffee that showcases how expressive and complex high scoring coffees from this region can be! In the cup we find a tropical presentation of Yuzu and yellow fruits, light chamomile florals, and a cashew note in the finish. The entire presentation is juicy and sweet with a strong definition of acidity when cooled and the whole cup remains structured throughout. We suggest you rest this coffee for an extended period to see how the flavors develop with age. 

For best results we recommend you rest this coffee for at least 3+ weeks! 

From Bean & Bean: 

This Yellow Catucai comes from Fazenda Boa Vista, a farm on the slopes of the Serra da Mantiqueira that's been growing coffee since the 1880s. It scored 92.3 and took top honors at the 2025 COCARIVE Specialty Coffee Competition.

The farm has stayed in the same family for generations and is now run by three brothers, Lívio César, Marcelo, and Flávio Carvalho Ferraz, who've spent years refining how they grow and process the coffee. Flávio has his own strong run at competition too, placing first in his region at the 2025 Minas Gerais state quality contest.

COCARIVE, the cooperative Fazenda Boa Vista sells through, is based in Carmo de Minas and has built a reputation for producing some of Brazil's best specialty lots, with every member farm certified by the Brazilian Specialty Coffee Association.
