ABOUT SANCOFFEE
An independent B-corp certified specialty coffee cooperative from Campo das Vertentes region.
Where we come from
Campo das Vertentes is located in the heart of Minas Gerais state, approximately 200km south of the capital city of Belo Horizonte. The region gained its name, meaning literally “watershed fields,” due to its location between two important water basins in Brazil. Because of the fertile soils and the abundance of water, agriculture arrived early in the region following the first settlers who came in search of precious metals. The coffee plant adapted perfectly to this area and production can be traced back to 1860. More recently, the rich coffee tradition of Campo das Vertentes, as well as the unique landscape and microclimate of the region, are being recognized by a new geographical indication.
Topography: high plateaus with an average altitude of 1030m above sea level. Soft slopes allowing for efficient mechanization.
Climate: Regular rainfall and mild temperatures throughout the year. Dry weather, favoring post-harvest procedures, with a broad temperature range during the harvest season, offering good conditions for the maturation cycle.
