ABOUT
Santuário Sul is a project started by Luiz Paulo Dias Pereira in 2015. His motivations are to challenge the global market perception of Brazilian coffees through experimental processing techniques and greater cultivar selection.
In addition to traditional Brazilian varieties, Santuário Sul boasts more than 30 exotic varieties of coffee. Progressive cultivation practices such as shade plantation and innovative drying processes create new and exciting flavours.
This Natural process SL-28 variety from Santuário Sul appears for the first time here at Seven Seeds. Luiz Paulo’s extremely controlled post-harvest drying techniques impart minimal additional flavours to this highly regarded and sought-after varietal. The result is a coffee with a rich, comforting texture, fresh fruit acidity, and a tea-like finish with delicate florals.
