Have you ever realized that coffee is one of the most dynamic products in the world?
From the beginning, when we look at that wild bush in Ethiopia, discoveries fascinate us every day. From new varieties and new crop management techniques to new methods of preparation, this is a market that is evolving at a fast pace.
​
In this whirlwind of new concepts, one thing tells us a lot about Brazil: the altitude X latitude paradigm. Contrary to what has always been believed, coffees grown at different altitudes can present beautiful, distinctive results in the cup, always following sustainable coffee practices.

​

​
Yes, coffee is one beverage always between transformations and discoveries, always in motion. And Latitudes Brazilian Coffees is in this fourth wave of the drink.
