Fazenda Rio Brilhante (Brazil)

About this coffee

Inacio Carlos Urban arrived in Minas Gerais in 1976 with the dream of producing great coffee using sustainable and innovative practices. Inacio purchased his own farm in 1984 named Rio Brilhante, translating to Bright River, giving recognition to the clear waters of the beautiful river which provides life to his farm. Rio Brilhante has gone on to become one of the best regarded farms in the region, spanning over 2000 hectares. Since planting the first coffee trees 30 years ago, Inacio still strives for quality and excellence which is largely achieved through hard work, dedication and rigorous quality control methods.

We first visited Rio Brilhante in 2019 and were amazed by the quality and consistency of the coffee produced. We now purchase from Rio Brilhante annually through a direct relationship model.

This lot is a Mundo Novo variety, cultivated at Rio Brilhante Farm, and represents a balance between tradition and innovation. Originating from a natural cross between Bourbon and Typica, it is widely recognised for its adaptability and its potential to produce coffees with a rich and consistent sensory profile.
