Brazil is flat, with coffee farms mostly about 600-1000 meters above sea level, suitable for growing shade-free Kaddura, New World and Kaduai, also known as Sm CofFee. This is the main reason for the lack of aroma of Brazilian coffee (but when the altitude is more than 1100 meters, the taste of exposed coffee will improve, comparable to bourbon. See Chapter 4 of this book). Fortunately, 90% of Minas province is more than 300 meters, and 25% is between 600 and 1500 meters, which is the highest province in Brazil on average. In particular, the Serrado platform and South Minas in the central and western part of Minas are mostly above 1100 meters above sea level, with undulating foothills, rich landforms, obvious dry and wet seasons, large temperature differences between day and night, and rich micro-climate, which are suitable for cultivating elegant bourbon and yellow bourbon. It has naturally become the main producing area of Brazilian boutique coffee. In addition, farms in the Minas Southeast Mountain Forest region (Mata de Minas) with an elevation of more than 1000 meters can also produce high-quality coffee.

Since 1999, South Minas is the most successful manor in Brazil's "extraordinary cup" national treasure bean bidding activity, which is the backbone of Brazilian boutique coffee. As for the north-central mausoleum of Minas (Chapada de Minas) is not a boutique producing area, mostly for general commercial beans. To sum up, South Minas, the central and western Mesa of Minas (i.e. Serrado) and the higher forest areas in the southeast can all be called boutique producing areas of Minas province.

In addition, Mogiana in the northeast of Sao Paulo Province (north to South Minas) is also dominated by shaded bourbon, which is ranked as the three major boutique producing areas in Brazil along with Serrado and South Minas. Well-known estates in South Minas include Hope Manor and Montague. The famous "Datra Manor" and "Highland Manor" groups also have several large estates in Serrado and Mojiana. The four-cup tournament's ever-winning manor has become the treasure of the town shops of South Minas, Serrado and Mojiana.
