Origin & Farm: Carmo Coffees, Heliodora

This coffee is a community lot sourced from small producers in the heart of Brazil’s finest coffee-growing terrain, managed by the expertise of Carmo Coffees.

• The Processor: The beans are processed at the Carmo Coffees purchasing and processing centre, located at the site of Fazenda Floresta in the city of Heliodora, Minas Gerais. This region is renowned as the epicentre of Brazil's specialty coffee production.

• The Sourcing Model: Carmo Coffees actively supports local smaller producers, allowing them to deliver their cherry to the mill. This partnership provides farmers with access to processing expertise and the innovative "New Flavours" program, enabling them to create unique cup profiles and receive higher prices for their coffee. This income allows farmers to invest back in their farms and families for the future.

• The Terroir: The farms are located in the mountains of Sul de Minas, benefiting from consistent temperatures and altitudes that deliver the ideal conditions for a sweet, clean, and classic Brazilian profile.

Processing: Pulped Natural for Sweetness

To achieve the desired Soft, Light, and Nutty profile with high sweetness and body, this coffee is likely processed using the Pulped Natural method.

• Farm Varietals: The local farmers typically cultivate high-quality varietals such as Mundo Novo, Yellow Bourbon, and Catuaí, which are essential for the traditional Brazilian base notes.

• Pulped Natural Method: The cherry is first pulped (the skin is removed), but the majority of the sticky fruit mucilage (honey) is left intact on the bean. The beans are then dried with this mucilage layer. This process enhances the coffee’s natural sweetness, body, and nutty characteristics while keeping the final cup clean.

• Quality & Innovation: The "New Flavours" program allows Carmo Coffees to apply their expertise in processing, which, combined with the rigorous sorting, ensures the coffee achieves a Speciality Grade classification (often categorized as Strictly Soft, Fine Cup).

Recommended Brew Methods

The Light/Medium roast and its clean, nutty profile make this coffee exceptionally well-suited for filter methods that highlight its sweetness and gentle body.

Pour-Over (V60, Chemex): Use a Medium grind (Optimal Method) to showcase the coffee's clean, Light, and Sweet characteristics. The gentle extraction perfectly highlights the subtle Nutty notes.

Batch Brew / Filter: Use a Medium grind for an excellent, consistent all-day cup. The balanced extraction delivers a reliable, soft, and comforting brew.

Aeropress: Use a Medium grind and a short steep time (under 1 minute) to create a smooth, balanced cup that captures the coffee's gentle flavour without over-extracting.

About The Roastery

Mont58 Coffee is the passion project of husband-and-wife team, Shai and Maya. Their journey began quite literally at home in 2018, when they took the plunge and jacked in their full-time jobs to start roasting coffee in a humble garden shed in South-East London. Shai, whose passion for coffee was sparked by childhood memories of drinking cardamom-spiced coffee with his grandfather, honed his craft on a tiny 250g machine.

This small-batch venture quickly took off, especially during the lockdown when the local community wholeheartedly embraced their door-to-door, bike-delivered coffee.

While they have since scaled up to a larger roastery in Ashford, Kent, and opened further sites, the spirit of that original shed, small business, big heart, remains central to their award-winning, ethical, and community-focused mission. It's a proper 'started from the ground up' success story, but with significantly better beans.
