Silvio’s dedication to producing exceptional coffee is truly inspiring. His coffees are a testament to the best Brazil has to offer, consistently delivering the cleanest, most versatile cups we’ve encountered. Whether brewed as espresso or filter, Silvio’s coffees shine. However, it’s his Naturals that truly stand out. These complex and distinctive coffees embody the unique terroir of the region, showcasing an unparalleled clarity rarely seen elsewhere in Brazil.
This particular microlot presents exquisite fruit flavors with a delightful creaminess and comforting texture, a true testament to the region of Piata’s magic. With each sip, you’re experiencing the pinnacle of Brazilian coffee, a quality worthy of sharing with the world. We’re immensely grateful for our ongoing partnership with Silvio and his Agricoffee team, and we hope you’ll enjoy this cup of his exceptional coffee.
