Marimbus Chapada Diamantina, Brazil
Tasting notes: Caramel sweetness with apple and toasted almond.
The Borré family has been farming at Fazenda Progresso since the 1980s, with a focus on specialty coffee in the last two decades. The farm’s coffee program is run by the talented and innovative Fabiano Borré, who cares deeply about the production of high quality coffee, as well as the wellbeing of his team and local community, and the natural environment that sustains the farm.
The family’s motto is ‘Mindful Coffee’, which references their commitment to acting consciously and responsibly, and ensuring that their core values – excellence, innovation, environmental and social responsibility – inform every decision they make.
We’ve been offering coffee from Progresso since 2015. We love Marimbus in particular for its quality and consistency. This coffee’s balance and creamy caramel sweetness make it perfect for espresso applications. It tastes delicious on its own, and it also pairs beautifully with milk.
