Brazil is the world’s largest coffee producing country, rallying 40-60 million bags a year. Located in the center of the country, the Cerrado is a large tropical savanna ecoregion. Throughout Brazil, the natural and pulped natural processing methods are most common, which imparts sweetness and enhances body in the cup. This coffee has low acidity and with its classic nutty and chocolate profile, it pairs great with milk.

The Pacas family have been growing coffee in El Salvador for over 150 years and are true pioneers in the field. They discovered the variety Pacas and it is actually named after them! Finca La Esperanza is 1 of 19 farms owned by the family, and is divided into 18 lots, each with its own microclimate. The Pacamara is a hybrid between Pacas and Maragogype varieties, giving it a unique extra-large bean size. Pacamaras can display a wide range of flavor, typically characterized by some herbaceous notes and a dense body. This is a natural process coffee, and we find subtle yellow fruit notes with a long, sweet finish.

SteamDot’s Ethiopia Guji comes from the Guracho Washing Station, comprised of about 2300 contributing farmers, and managed by Kedir Hassen Aredo. Guji is an administrative zone of the Oromia region of Ethiopia, which gained political definition in 2002. Prior to that year, the Guji territory (named for the Guji tribe of the Oromo people) was a part of the Borena zone. Guji Zone shares a border with the Southern Nations, Nationalities & People’s Region (SNNP,) which includes Gedeo Zone (where Yirgacheffe is located) and Sidama Zone. This coffee is unsurprisingly a fan favorite with its sweet, fruity, and floral profile. Ethiopia Guji is one of our flagship coffees at SteamDot, and we serve it proudly.

Hacienda La Gerencia is located in the northern province of Carchi, Ecuador and run by Mario Andrade. The farm sits at a range of high elevations from between 1,900 to 2,400
meters and consists of 3 hectares in total. Upon arrival to the wet-mill, the cherries are depulped and fermented for 16 hours and then dried in parabolic dryers for 20-25 days. Mario
is the leader of a small 10-person group called Habitat Coffee that helps farmers in the area. Not only does Mario have a central location where the farmers can come and sell their coffee, but he offers pre-harvest financing for fertilization and even assists with finishing the drying of the coffees for the farmers (who are often so strapped for cash, they can’t wait to finish drying
before needing to sell). Mario is transparent in his business practices so farmers know what the final price was, and what he deducted for his services. This coffee is delicate and elegant on the cupping table, with bright acidity evoking crisp fruit notes, coupled with refined sweetness.
