More About Brazil Santos
Brazil Santos – 30ml Coffeeroasters
Brazil Santos from 30ml Coffeeroasters is a gently roasted single-origin coffee with a rich, approachable character. These beans from Minas Gerais deliver chocolaty and nutty flavors with a creamy body. This article covers all the details, from origin to brewing advice, about this popular bean.
Origin and farm
Brazil Santos comes from Minas Gerais, a renowned coffee region in Brazil. The name ‘Santos’ refers to the Port of Santos, from which Brazilian coffee has traditionally been exported. The beans for this single origin come primarily from small farms at elevations around 900–1,200 meters. Exporter Atlantica in Belo Horizonte works closely with local farmers and cooperatives to safeguard quality.
Roast profile
This coffee is gently roasted by 30ml Coffeeroasters, amounting to a medium-roast profile. The beans are not roasted too dark, preserving natural sweetness and distinctive flavors. Thanks to the mild roast, Brazil Santos has low bitterness and avoids harsh, roasted notes. The result is a well-balanced character suited to both espresso and filter brewing.
Flavor and aroma
Brazil Santos is known for its accessible flavor profile. The aroma evokes chocolate and roasted nuts (such as almond or hazelnut). On the palate there’s a mild sweetness with notes of cocoa and a hint of caramel. The body is silky-smooth, giving a creamy mouthfeel. Thanks to the low acidity, the experience stays smooth and balanced, even with milk, in a cappuccino a milk-chocolate-like character comes forward.
Processing Method
This coffee is processed using the natural method. After picking, the whole cherries are sun-dried without water. Through this natural process, sugars and fruity tones infuse the bean, resulting in a sweeter taste and fuller body. The method is environmentally friendly because it requires hardly any water and yields a coffee with low acidity and intense aromas.
Variety and species
Brazil Santos consists of 100% Arabica coffee beans. Classic varieties in the region include Bourbon, Catuaí, and Mundo Novo, Arabica cultivars that thrive around 1,000 meters. Bourbon (including Yellow Bourbon) contributes a sweet, balanced flavor, while Catuaí and Mundo Novo combine high yield with mild, nutty notes.
Sustainability and ethics
Production of Brazil Santos pays attention to people and planet. The beans come from small family farms, often organized in cooperatives for stronger bargaining power and fair prices. Exporter Atlantica invests in sustainable cultivation, helping farmers achieve certifications (e.g., Rainforest Alliance, 4C, UTZ) and supporting reforestation and water-management projects in Minas Gerais. The choice for natural processing also boosts sustainability, since it uses hardly any water. Coffee lovers can enjoy Brazil Santos with a clear conscience.
Brewing Recommendations
- Espresso: As an espresso, this coffee delivers a sweet, balanced shot with chocolate and almond tones and a full body.
- Cappuccino: In cappuccino or latte, a creamy milk-chocolate flavor emerges, without the Brazil Santos getting lost.
- Lungo/Americano: Also suitable for a lungo or Americano, a larger cup that is still smooth and full of flavor.
- Filter coffee: In a filter brewer (e.g., V60 dripper or coffee machine), the subtle sweet notes come through nicely, yielding a smooth cup with low acidity.
- French press: In the cafetière (French press), it brews a heavier, fuller coffee in which nutty and chocolatey flavors dominate.
