Located in the Mogiana region, in São Sebastião da Grama in the State of São Paulo, Fazenda Recreio is an iconic farm of Brazilian coffee. Nestled between 1,000 and 1,350 meters in altitude, it benefits from fertile soil, a mild climate, and ideal sun exposure for growing expressive and balanced coffees.

Founded in 1890, the farm is now run by Diogo Dias Teixeira de Macedo, an agronomist and the fifth generation of the family. Alongside his parents, Homero and Maria Teixeira de Macedo, Diogo perpetuates a tradition of excellence while integrating innovative approaches: experimenting with new varieties, fermentation processes, and technological innovations.

For this particular lot, the cherries are washed, sorted, depulped, and dried on the same day they are picked on the patios. They remain there until they reach about 20% humidity, before being transferred to a dryer where they finish drying to reach a humidity level of 11%. The coffee then rests for at least 30 days in resting boxes to homogenize the drying, ensuring a stable and harmonious cup.

This constant pursuit of improvement has earned Fazenda Recreio international recognition, notably through numerous awards at the Cup of Excellence, including a first place in 2004 and several other distinctions over the years.

This is the first year we are collaborating with the Macedo family, and we are pleased to present this lot that will quickly become your daily coffee. It is a coffee that perfectly reflects Brazilian know-how and the heritage of a farm where tradition and innovation meet harmoniously.
