About us
Orfeu emerged in the Specialty Coffee market in 2005, cultivating selected quality beans in the high mountains of Fazenda Sertãozinho in southern Minas Gerais, a place with a tradition of over 67 years in coffee plantations.
The roasting facility was conceived and built on the farm itself, to complete the production cycle and deliver a high-quality, fresh product directly to customers. The production unit is climate-controlled and features state-of-the-art equipment to ensure the highest final product quality throughout the roasting, packaging, and shipping processes.
The farm's symbol is a 1,500-year-old Pink Jequitibá, an ancient tree that symbolizes longevity, respect for nature, strength, tradition, and the history of Orfeu.

Our Values
To do with passion. For you to fall in love. To achieve excellence in everything we do — "the pursuit of the perfect bean." To guarantee superior quality not only in the product but throughout the entire production process, including quality of life for those who work on the farm. To believe in the sophistication found in simplicity, naturalness, and authenticity.
The kind that cultivates over time, with history. To enhance the knowledge that generates value and flavor: in the process, in know-how, in the union between art, sensibility, and technology, in the connoisseur consumer, and in culture. To take pleasure in you discovering and tasting the best coffee.
