Description
Acu is a varietal of coffee that originated in Brazil. It is a hybrid of Mundo Novo and Caturra, two other popular Brazilian coffee varieties. Acu is known for its high yield and resistance to diseases, making it a popular choice among coffee farmers in Brazil and other countries. The history of Acu coffee dates back to the 1950s when the Brazilian Coffee Institute (IBC) began developing new coffee varieties to improve the quality and productivity of Brazilian coffee. Acu was one of the several varieties developed during this time, and it quickly gained popularity due to its high yield and good cup quality. Fazenda Camocim is a biodynamic coffee farm located in the region of Cerrado Mineiro, Brazil. The farm is committed to sustainable and environmentally friendly farming practices, and their coffee is grown without the use of synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. The coffee from Fazenda Camocim is a single-origin specialty coffee that is processed using the natural method. This means that the coffee cherries are left to dry in the sun, with the fruit still intact, for several weeks before being hulled and sorted. This process imparts unique fruity and floral flavors to the coffee, creating a delicious and complex cup. Fazenda Camocim's biodynamic farming practices and commitment to quality make their Acu coffee a must-try for coffee enthusiasts looking for sustainable and flavorful options.
