Located in the south of Minas, Fazenda do Lobo–or Wolf Farm–is named after the recurrent appearances of wolves on the farm. It is owned by Andrea Galvão Nogueira Foresti, a fourth generation coffee producer. She manages Fazenda do Lobo with the support of her husband, Marcos, and two of their three children. The family has worked together to ensure that sustainability is a top priority on their farm. Fazenda do Lobo has become one of the most distinguished specialty coffee producers in the region, and their coffee has often been featured in specialty coffee competitions.

Brazilian coffees are best known for the chocolatey and nutty notes and are often used in coffee blends to provide a substantial base note. However, this naturally processed coffee shines on its own with a zippy acidity and silky, creamy body. It reminds us of baked apples, streusel, and cashew butter, and is a great choice for folks who still enjoy some brightness in an easy-going cup!
