Coffee Details

About This Coffee

Jose Claudio has an unlikely coffee story. He left his hometown of Inpahim at 18 with a plan to work in Sao Paulo and then Portugal, save what he could, and one day return home to build a farm of his own. He made it real in the late 2000s, coming back to Brazil and buying his first three-hectare plot.

At first Jose only grew vegetables. Coffee was barely planted in the area at the time and the region's low altitude meant it was usually written off. That changed when he met agronomist Inacio Soares at a farming summit. The two talked through what it would take to grow genuinely good coffee at low elevation, and they have worked closely ever since. This anaerobic natural Catuai 144 is the result of that long partnership, picked and fermented for a deep, sweet, dessert-like cup.

How to Brew Brazil Ze Claudio

Filter

Espresso

If your cup tastes thin or sharp, grind a little finer to build sweetness and body; if it turns bitter or heavy, grind coarser and pull back.

How Much Coffee Is in a Bag?

At around 15g per filter cup, a 250g bag makes roughly 16 cups and a 1kg bag makes about 65 cups. With low-altitude lots like this rarely making it to specialty roasters, the 1kg is the easy way to live with a sweet, dessert-forward Brazilian through your whole brewing week.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Brazil Ze Claudio better as espresso or filter?
Both work. As filter it is sweet and rounded with a clean cherry finish; as espresso it pulls thick and chocolatey, a great base for milk drinks. Start with the recipes above and adjust grind to taste.

What does this coffee taste like?
Chocolate cookie, nutmeg and cherry. It is a low-acidity, dessert-like cup with a syrupy body, thanks to the anaerobic natural processing. A friendly, comforting choice rather than a bright, fruity one.
