No two coffee beans are ever the same. But some turn out to be rarities. By some mystery of nature, the beans from one or another plot stand out from the rest due to their unique sensory characteristics. Occasionally, Orfeu's Q-Graders are surprised by singular flavors and aromas. These rarities are transformed into Microlots – super exclusive and limited editions. From the 100% Arabica species, they are hand-picked at a minimum altitude of 1100 meters on the Sertãozinho group's farms.
It's only possible to find these beans and give them the attention they deserve because the producers deeply know every square meter of the farms that produce all varieties of Orfeu coffee. Since 2005, when the brand entered the specialty coffee market, the purpose was already defined: to cultivate the best possible quality beans and keep them in our country for Brazilians to consume. Orfeu managed to make this dream a reality because it developed processes that combine cutting-edge technology with irreplaceable, meticulous artisanal work, done by specialists and monitored in detail for the constant improvement of techniques.
The farms are divided into small plots, which allows us to precisely understand the specificities of each area regarding sun exposure, climatic impact, altitude, and bean variety.
Every week, producers and Q-Graders taste the coffee produced from the beans of each plot, identifying their specificities. And it is at this moment that, occasionally, they recognize the unprecedented flavors that stand out from the rest. Check out some more Microlots launched by Orfeu below:
