Anybody heard of Brazilian Daterra??
The first Brazilian coffee to be Rain Forest Alliance Certified. Grown on perhaps the most advanced "model farm" in Brazil and maybe the world. "Quality Fanatic" is a good description of the owners approach to agriculture. The Daterra even has an ISO designation. Another first. This is an extraordinary bean. Smooth and sweet and lacking the bitterness found in many common Brazilian coffees.
In tasting, a nutty peanut taste at the front. Everyone remarks on the aroma. As well they should. Brazils are known for that. But clearly this is not the standard Brazilian. In fact some have noted, negatively, that is has more of a Central American profile and therefor is not real Brazilian*. While they may have a point, the combination of great aroma, nutty- fruity tastes and the classic smooth, lower acid quality of Brazilians, make this a very pleasant winner.
Sounds good :P
