Delightfully full-bodied, this Brazil Daterra coffee originates from a farm esteemed for its high quality produce, sustainability and environmental welfare.
This is a Bourbon coffee grown on the Daterra Farm which consists of 216 micro farms each with individual characteristics. Daterra is a leader in sustainable production and innovation in the coffee industry, and were the first farm in Brazil to become Rainforest Alliance certified.
Daterra use a variety of beans grown in ‘terroir’ across the farm to create this coffee which especially suits espresso. This blend of beans is named “Bruzzi” after the Arbruzzo region in Italy.
Brazil Daterra Bruzzi produces a rich, full bodied mouthfeel with a hint of acidity. We roast it medium to unlock flavours of chocolate and cherry, with nutty notes.
For us, Brazil Daterra Bruzzi is unrivalled as an espresso coffee and use it as our house espresso at Duke Street.
