Additional information
At the heart of Brazil, 180 kilometers north west from the capital city, Brasilia, lies a thriving, family-run farm. Fazenda Bagagem is a 270 hectare
farm surrounded by the incredible beauty of the Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park, part of the Brazilian biome known as Cerrado.
Fazenda Bagagem didn’t always grow coffee. Álvaro, an agronomist originally from Rio de Janeiro, purchased the land in 1989 and cultivated
traditional crops such as beans and corn as a means of supplementary income.
In 2007 the family planted their very first coffee tree, and little by little that has grown to what is today 270ha of coffee with varieties including Yellow
and Red Catuai, Catucai, Arara, Paraiso, and Gesha, all chosen for a balance of productivity and sensory quality.
They are sowed, harvested, ripped out and re-sowed every season, a cycle that takes from the soil without giving much back.
Fazenda Bagagem
stands not just as a coffee producer but as a testament to the power of family, sustainability, and a relentless pursuit of excellence in the world of
coffee.
