Most Brazilian coffee exports have consisted of robusta beans, a lower quality bean commonly used in supermarket shelf coffees. However, some Arabica beans are grown in Brazil and Daterra is an example of the very best.
Daterra was Brazil's first sustainable coffee farm, becoming Rainforest Alliance certified in 2003.
Daterra's beans are grown at an altitude around 3800 ft and at a fairly constant temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, and ideal environment for coffee trees.
Daterra has spent considerable resources on quality control. They call it their Penta System®, which they implemented to ensure quality consistency through rigorous inspection.
Four Beans’ Daterra beans come from the estate of Villa Borghesi.
The Four Beans roastmaster’s comments:
"This is the only coffee we buy already blended and it’s called “Sunrise Blend”. Coffee is brought into the consortium and several blends are created. This one is the best we've found. Soft, nutty, low acidity with a nice bettersweet chocolate aftertaste. Another all day coffee."
