Story
Fazenda Satuario Sul dedicates 80 of its 120 hectares to coffee trees. The trees are attended by Luiz Paulo Dias Pereira Filho, a fourth-generation coffee farmer who is also co-founder of Carmo Coffees. An innovator by nature, Luiz uses Santuario Sul as a quasi-laboratory and has planted over thirty varieties and cultivars on his farm. Luiz has focused on the cultivation of African varietals, Ethiopian in particular.
Santuario Sul feels different to the larger, lower-altitude farms of Brazil which supply the majority of the world’s house blends. The temperature is lower, the altitude higher and shade trees are abundant. Luis also deliberately applies greater care in the picking and processing of his coffees. Another coffee from Luis placed sixth in the 2022 Australian Barista Championships, a sure sign that Luis’ laboratory is working.

Origin
Carmo de Minas, Minas Gerais, Brazil,
The region lies between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare ranges, the Eastern flank of the Great Rift Valley. The Kikuyu, the largest ethnic group in Kenya, call Mount Kenya the ‘Mountain of Whiteness’ and its white peaks are thought to be the home and throne of the deity ‘Ngai’. Nyeri town is the prime spot for commerce, where coffee and tea farms are the most important cash crops in the county.
