Of the three plots that make up the farm Fazenda Aurea, Moreninha Formosa is named after the largest. These plots are located right outside the cities of Serra de Salitre, Minas Gerais, and Cerrado Mineiro. It is the specific location where this amazing coffee is grown. The coffee trees in this region flourish at 3,900 feet and at these elevations, slower-growing trees produce more intensely flavored gourmet coffee beans.

After being harvested and processed, Moreninha Formosa coffee is raked and dried on raised sunbeds, allowing hot, dry air to circulate over, under, and around the cherries. This allows the cherries to dry evenly producing a full-bodied coffee with a touch of earthiness. This Brazilian coffee will surprise your taste buds with dark chocolate and cherry essences along with hints of orange that emerge with our light-medium roast. When brewed, this gourmet coffee produces a sweet cup with a gentle hint of nuttiness.

Taste

Light Dark

Moreninha Formosa is a varietal of Mondo Nuvo, an exotic coffee that is naturally processed. You'll be surprised with the sweet hints of cherry and citrusy oranges combined with dark chocolate, which give this gourmet coffee a lowly acidic and light body.

Brazilian coffee

This will not be my favorite. Usually get a Central American coffee which I will do when finished this coffee.

P. S.

Neglected to mention in my previous post that we have bought this coffee several times and liked it, so the "Bad Batch" label is probably correct.

Did Not Like at All

Not sure if we got a bad batch, or what, but this coffee was bitter on the front and left a lingering sour taste on the back end. Was not smooth at all and none of the flavor attributes listed could be detected, the bitterness overwhelmed everything else. Several people who drank it agreed with our assessment.

Unfortunately, we had ordered two different coffees in 5 lb. bags in the same order, so by the time we opened this one, it was well past the 30-day return window, so we had to eat the $55 cost of a bad coffee. Will not order again.

Love love love

Best coffee for my taste. Lowest in acidity. I love that is not toasted to black, which gives it a more shuttle flavor. My new favorite coffee.
