Walnut and hazelnut are centre stage here, with soft brown sugar backing them up and a sweet, syrupy finish balancing up that mug full of nuts.
Fazenda Cachoeira da Grama is 417 hectares, and 64 are planted with coffee. Environmental sustainability is considered very important in the farm management, and they have developed a program of planting native species alongside the coffee crop to keep a better ecological balance.
This farm has a school, a club, a full-sized football field for employees, and 47 houses with modern facilities. The family invests heavily in the farm's coffee processing facilities. Wastewater is treated to avoid polluting the stream that crosses the land, and the farm has a small hydroelectric plant used during the peak harvest.

The first time we visited Fazenda Cachoeira da Grama, it opened our eyes to what great specialty coffee can be. Not only because it’s delicious, but because social and environmental responsibility is at the core of their Brazilian coffee production.
