I was born in the middle of coffee coming from a family of farmers who already cultivate coffee and other crops to 4 generations, but even so the first opportunity I left to work in a truck where I stayed for 3 years but ended up going back to farming with thoughts of change, with help from my sister and my parents started several attempts failures but always seeking to correct and little by little we were improving every day our techniques, seeking to be increasingly sustainable and with more quality, we produce coffee at an altitude between 1150 and 1420m in dom correa, district of manhuacu, we are internationally certified which further strengthens our commitment to the environment and we always seek to have the best possible product to offer the final customers, in 2021 we started the work of direct export and our quality has been proven not only with awards but by several national and international coffee houses to which we are partners and we sell our coffees.

We are pioneers in what we call artisanal quality – the andcrafted work and techniques developed by our growers in the region – producing high quality coffees. The result of this effort is a diversity of nuances and flavours that are present in our coffees – highly prized in the most important national and international coffee competitions.
Our production is naturally sustainable, predominantly made up of family farming and impacted by direct and indirect economic and social factors, and the natural integration between man and forest, cultural factors present in the coffee production of our region.
The Matas de Minas Region is regulated by the “Matas de Minas Coffee Associations Council”. A non profit organization with representative, scientific, educative and cultural roles, formed by associated members and partnerships, focused on the development of the coffee growers throughout the 64 municipalities that compose the demarcated region of the Matas de Minas.
