Brazil is the world's number one coffee producer, accounting for about 30% of global production. The coffee produced is generally known as "Brazil", but the coffee beans exported by the port of Santos are called "Santos Coffee". Santos Coffee, which is almost all produced in southeastern Brazil, is the best coffee in Brazil and is divided into No.2 to No.8 grades. The Santos No.2 introduced here is the highest level of beans with a defective number of less than 4 in 300g beans. It is characterized by a slight bitterness and a smooth taste.

You can also taste coffee in this way.

The Brazilian method of ordering coffee: using sugar as a signal?

The most common coffee in Brazil is made from deep-roasted beans into espresso and drunk with a lot of sugar. The door of the cafe is always wide open, and there are several small cups and plates on the round table around the sugar jar. The guest enters the cafe, picks up the cup and puts it in front of him, then adds sugar to the cup, and the waiter will pour the coffee for the guest. It turns out that adding sugar to the cup is a signal to order coffee.

Tasting notes of Meiya Tazaki

Santos No.2

Aroma: generally speaking, it is a harmonious aroma. It contains aromas of dried jujube, cinnamon, nutmeg and earth.

Taste: at first it feels a balance, then the obvious sour taste spreads out, and finally there is a mellow and bitter aftertaste.

The appearance of raw beans

Particles range from medium to large, but without green.

Drinking method

Santos No.2 is the finest coffee bean in Brazil, and it tastes just as good as a single cup of coffee.

Coffee beans made in Brazil are often used as the base of mixed coffee because they can be matched with beans from almost all producing areas. It is not an exaggeration to say that Brazilian beans can be found in all mixed coffee. This is probably because the production of Brazilian coffee beans ranks first in the world and has a stable level of quality.

In addition, if sour beans are mixed with Brazilian beans, the bitterness of the latter can ease the original personality of the former. For example, the sour beans such as Mocha, Guatemala and Kilimanjaro are mixed with Brazilian beans, and the bitterness of the latter softens the acid of the former and makes it easier to taste.

If you want to do a little design in the Blue Mountain Coffee, which balances sour and bitter, you have to mix Brazilian beans to highlight its bitterness.

Production area

Brazil accounts for about 30% of the world's total coffee production, mainly in the southeast, and most of it is exported by the port of Santos, known as "Santos Coffee".

In terms of states, the producing areas include Sao Paulo, Little Jerry, Parana, Esprito. Santu, Madeguroso, Bahaya, Goa, and so on.
